Tips

When you start a community, make it clear what kind of a group you are forming.

Select a tag to show a filtered list of communities that relate to a particular topic.

The All Communities view displays all communities you can view. The My Communities view lists the communities you belong to.

When you create a community, you can set up feeds to maintain a current set of information to keep community members informed. Community members have the option of subscribing to the feed or not.

Communities

Provide a meeting of the minds

Communities are groups of people with a common interest. A public community is available for all to join, while a private community is restricted to a particular group. A community provides a central spot for users to stay in touch, share information and exchange ideas.

Ready to share? Start a community!

Whether you are forming a project team, researching an emerging technology or looking for people who share your love of a hobby, a community is a great way to reach out, get organized, and start sharing information. As a community owner, you can invite others to join and manage the content and membership for the community.
