		<description>Oops I should&#039;ve been clearer. PlanMyWedding  sites are not promotional communities but activity-driven communities. Jump on the forums, talk flowers and bridesmaids, get married - then don&#039;t return.  I guess what I mean is that some communities have a limited life span - one-shot activity. Others are lifelong commitments... though I&#039;m sure some women enjoy the wedding chatter for life, for many women it is a short term activity. &lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;For me, &lt;a href=&quot;http://meetup.org&quot; rel=&quot;nofollow&quot;&gt;meetup.org&lt;/a&gt; and eventfull etc tap into REPEAT events/activities - otherwise they would die after one meeting, or conference. &lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;So in respect to &quot;time&quot; there are two types of communities - &quot;time of life&quot; activities (wedding communities) and &quot;life time&quot; longterm commitment to sport or books or something.</description>

		<description>Great perspective, Jeff. Thanks for the comment. Just keep pointing those executives to posts like this. Eventually they may get it. And, of course, show them the benefits as often as possible to override their frustrations. Thanks for stopping by.</description>

		<description>Thanks Rachel. You used big words ... head hurts ... kidding. Thanks for the comment. My hope is posts like this can help the people we report ROI to understand that community metrics aren&#039;t always an upward graph. Doesn&#039;t mean they aren&#039;t successful. Just normal. Thanks for the comment.</description>
