"I'm hiring a Community Manager right now and these are all great attributes - I'm hoping the candidate I find will have all of them! Instead of being specific about the number of Twitter followers or blog stats, we asked for someone to have a "demonstrated web presence." If we Google them, we want to be able to find relevant results that show they're engaged and communicating via the web -- whatever that medium or format might be. And the writing piece it *crucial* for us. The cover note is a huge litmus test for how well we think a person can write. I think what you've captured is the need to find TALENT first, and then skills. If I can find someone who is a great writer, outgoing, smart, creative, ambitious, etc., then I will gladly take the time to teach them how to use a specific tool or the ins and outs of a given industry. (And anyone who's looking for a cool Community Manager position with a fun start-up in NY's Capital Region hopefully has those skills that Arik mentioned.)..." - Amy Mengel

"Do you think Gannett/Cincinnati.com built this from the ground up, or is this a white label of Gowalla or another existing LBS? That's one thing I can see happening a lot in 2011 - FourSquare or Gowalla or SCVNGR creating skinned or white label versions of their tools for more specific localities. @amymengel" - Amy Mengel
