The core principle
The virtual hub supports real-world relationships and prevents one person from becoming the communications bottleneck.
What to do next
- Ask which communication tool your neighbors already use
- Set three clear rules
- Use the group to make in-person connection easier
The tool is not the community. Choose the platform your neighbors already use, even if it is not your favorite. Whether you choose WhatsApp, Facebook, or a group text, use three rules: no sales, no politics, and no vague complaints about neighbors.
