Wow! Community Manager Appreciation Day sure has come a long way in 4 years! Of course so has the discipline and roles of community management. The amount of conversation, content and celebration from yesterday seemed to hit hyperdrive. It was very hard to keep up and not get knocked over by the very large firehose with over 19,000 tweets peaking at 2,610 at 10am yesterday! Here at The Community Roundtable we like to think of CMAD as Community Manager Advancement Day…a day when we get to share great resources and links with you all. There were many yesterday and here are the ones we thought were worth re-sharing. If we have missed any that you thought were particularly good, please add them in the comments section.
