Well then, the first assignment was to join or participate in some web community.

I started thinking about it, trying to figure out if I already am apart of some community. And it so happends, I am apart of a few communities atleast. Both are online games.

So, you might wonder why I think the players in an online game can be called a community. Well, basicly you've got tens of thousands of people playing the game from all over europe. That doesn't count for a community yet. In game, there are numerous of phrases and acronyms that are only understood by other players of the same game. This is one good mark of a community.

The people in the game form Guilds to adventure together. These guilds normally have an online forum they chat around and stuff when not playing. So the players can interact with one another outside the game too. Most of the players actually wind up meeting outside the game aswell, in the Real World!

I'll continue this some other day, got some other stuff to do now.
