&lt;p&gt;So I would add that Community Managers could also develop an interesting relationship to market research. What they are (or rather could be) doing is to some extent ethnographical field research.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Unfortunately in Germany Community Manager is all too often misunderstood to be the guy that manages the company’s support forum and deletes the spam there.&lt;/p&gt;”&lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt; - &lt;em&gt;Comment on &lt;a href="http://www.readwriteweb.com/archives/hiring_a_community_manager.php"&gt;http://www.readwriteweb.com/archives/hiring_a_community_manager.php&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/em&gt;</description><link>http://metaroll.tumblr.com/post/42738601</link><guid>http://metaroll.tumblr.com/post/42738601</guid><pubDate>Fri, 18 Jul 2008 20:26:08 +0200</pubDate></item><item><title>"The problem is that trackbacks are not necessarily connected to profiles on Friendfeed.

So the usual way to block messages or comments (and to let through messages by friends of friends) won’t work with it. That could be a nasty gateway for spam.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Otherwise: yes. Trackbacks would be a nice thing because Friendfeed seems a bit “under-linked” to me at this moment.&lt;/p&gt;”&lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt; - &lt;em&gt;My thoughts on &lt;a href="http://bhc3.wordpress.com/2008/07/18/wanted-trackbacks-to-friendfeed-entries/#comment-1385"&gt;http://bhc3.wordpress.com/2008/07/18/wanted-trackbacks-to-friendfeed-entries/#comment-1385&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/em&gt;</description><link>http://metaroll.tumblr.com/post/42736251</link><guid>http://metaroll.tumblr.com/post/42736251</guid><pubDate>Fri, 18 Jul 2008 20:05:10 +0200</pubDate></item><item><title>Has Twitter already reached the slope of enlightenment?
