I loved their standard reviews and comparisions. You could actually have to windows open and compare the same shot from different cameras (check out the Mickey Mouse color test). The truth is - people don't trust the seller to give them the info that they want or relate to their user experience.

The BBQ story rings so true to me--partly because I also am a serious BBQ hobbyist and partly because I do have my own story, which I've been telling about "how I got involved with online community." I need to rethink that story again and connect it to the client side of the community equation. Thanks for the tip. Great post.

For some of you out there who aren't "down with Q-ing," Smokin' Okie is like having Scoble (www.scobleizer.com) suddenly show up on your blog. Thanks for stopping by SO. If you are ever anywhere near Seattle, I would love to Q for you!! At the heart of every successful community are the passionate core who are the metaphorical heart of the community that keeps it pumping. Whether it is a BBQ community or a Software Development community - it's the same secret sauce. Sean Whoa…a legend arrives on my blog!!

But are you write, each of us has an obsession of some sort and the on-line communities are an interesting read (especially if you aren't from that group). Glad you enjoy the forum,!
