he concern that an ever growing "digital divide" is lessening the potential impact of the Internet in human life is an important issues. This has direct relevance if you are planning an online community for people with no Internet access. But more importantly, it is also a call to each of us to recognize how we can lessen the divide and look for ways to contribute to the improvement of our communities as part of our online life.

Amy Jo Kim, online community architect, has suggested that there are two ways we participate in online communites: "the kind where you're yourself and the kind where you are playing out a fantasy role.
-
I define these two types as "augmented reality" where you're "you," and you're there to integrate with your life -- deal with the issues in your life. The fantasy communities that are about escaping from who you are and pretending to be someone else. So much about augmenting reality is more about shaping your life. I think that the augmented reality type of communities have become progressively more entwined in people's lives."

Online or virtual community is the gathering of people, in an online "space" where they come, communicate, connect, and get to know each other better over time. From that point on, the rest is up to you. Your community will be what you and your members make of it! -
