door64's Matt Genovese is starting up a drupal class. .  For quite a while now, a number of people (including me) have asked Matt how he started and grew door64.  He loves to tell the story, including how he completely failed the first time, what pitfalls he found (and now avoid), and how to use existing tools for creating and growing it virally. 

 

Matt discovered that he gets really excited when he can help others build their own online communities, both from a philosophical and practical standpoint.  He's always considered core-dumping / documenting his insights, strategies, tips, and lessons-learned for posterity....however he realized a better idea is to create a class to help others build their own communities.

 

To that end, right now Matt Genovese is developing a class that teaches how to build an online community.  Matt is doing this under his consulting moniker, brainshower consulting.  The plan is to keep the class size relatively small so he can have more 1-to-1 interaction.  For those interested in participating in such a class, please check out this short survey and Matt will be in touch with the class date:

 

 

This is pretty much verbatim from an email I got from Matt today.  ptw
