Guest Post by Nedra Weinreich: Fruit Salad - or, Selecting Your Target Audience
But they may just need a little help, such as teaching them a skill they don't have or showing them how to work the behavior into their lives, and they will take it and run with it.

Guest Post by Nina Simon: Design Techniques for Developing Questions for Visitor Participation

    As crisply shared at today's Web 2.0 Summit...requiring no embellishment: Don't take a meat cleaver to the core of your business; use a scalpel when making changes.
