You make a good overall point too. I think I'll update the post to include it.

Great post. Some useful ideas for increasing adoption.

We've been using Connect for the last few weeks and the number one item of feedback we've had is the lack of email subscriptions for Group activity. Whether we like it or not email is still the #1 communication tool for most people. We've posted content against groups and members have no idea that we've posted something, as they are not seeing anything in their inbox.

Therefore to help improve building the Community, we'd like to see email subscriptions. To avoid Spam, we could give people the option to turn the subscriptions on or off.
