Customized online communities have the potential to bring people together around a shared goal or purpose, whether it's a one-time event or an ongoing social club. At Comet, we believe that modular communities, made up of smaller, interconnected groups or modules, offer the greatest flexibility and adaptability for meeting the diverse needs of our users. In this piece, we'll explore the different types of communities that can be created on Comet and the ways in which they can be customized to meet the specific needs and goals of their members.

What are modular communities?

Modular communities are characterized by their ability to evolve and grow over time in response to the changing needs and interests of their members. They can take many different forms, including events, social clubs, and collaborative projects, and they are often organized around a specific goal or purpose. On Comet, we enable the creation of modular communities through the use of two main vectors: purpose and time.

Purpose

The purpose of a community can vary widely, depending on the interests and goals of its members. Some examples of common purposes include social connections and conversation, capital investment and crowdfunding, and working towards a shared mission or vision. In all cases, the key is bringing together a group of people who are committed to achieving a common goal and supporting each other in the process.

Time

The time frame of a community can also vary, depending on the specific nature of the group and its goals. For example, an event-based community might be focused on a single, one-time occurrence, while a social club might have an infinite time horizon. On Comet, we enable the creation of both short-term and long-term communities, depending on the needs and goals of our users.
