I have been following Seth Godin's Blog for a while. I don't think he has ever heard of John McKnight, Judith Snow or maybe even Peter Block, but he is a kindred spirit.

If you listen to the video clip, I think you will find he is talking about many of the same things as A Small Group. He just doesn't know it! Because he comes from a business perspective, some people might finally "get" the message about building community.

Thanks for posting that, Mary!
I've appreciated Seth's work for years, too. It's been such a help to our business. I'm also a member of the Tribes community site, Triiibes.com, and there has been some good conversation there about Peter's work and books, particularly COMMUNITY.

thanks for sharing this - I love the TED talks - missed this one. Excellent. Tribes seems to be the new "in" word. Thank you, Elaine
