....systems (also called discussion forums, or bulletin boards) for asynchronous interaction. Table 5 lists an initial set of propositions and measures directed toward one or the other of our sample virtual communities. By critical mass, we mean a substantial and relatively consistent user base [4, 53, 68, 69]. No consistent measure of critical mass exists in the literature. People generally agree that it reflects the number of participants or activity necessary for a community to function (or thrive) Target percentages of participation should be established as part of the requirements analysis. It ....

.... or other 10 forms of intra company increasing returns to adoption (Gurbaxani 1990) diversity of activities contributes to an environment where innovation can more easily be sustained, essentially because the organization can bootstrap from areas with a high fit to those with lower ones (Markus 1987; Christensen 1994) In summary, diversity in areas related to applications development contributes to organizational learning surrounding SPIs by making it easier for individuals to appreciate and absorb new information that is encountered; by increasing the likelihood that at least one domain ....
