His article Building Communities with Software has some good ideas on communities. I think we can learn from this.

Most of his articles are worth reading. The archive is very interesting (http://www.joelonsoftware.com/navLinks/fog0000000247.html), esp. the chapters from "User Interface Design for Programmers" (at the top of the page).
