Just social CoP-by-web-communication-tool driven story from RL:
Dafne is one of the most renowned webheads leaders and course innovators, and always ready to share and help others with her insight and knowledge. From the mail list which I'm not regularly following these days, I just found out that Dafne's old and fragile father passed away some weeks ago.
Spontaneously, one of the community members, Dennis, had started a blog for her to send our personal comments for condolency. My comment was no. 47 - so this blog has reached out to many people's hearts. And hopefully comforting Daf and her family. Such gestures seem to happen naturally in the online CoP.
