Greg Callus, deputy editor at politicalbetting.com and community moderator talks about the dawn of community managers, who they are and what skills they need, the two sides of community management (moderation & policing vs. welcoming & encouragement to contribute) and his involvement in his own personal online communities.

Quote of the interview – “Community managers are almost the online version of priests!”
