I present an example of an approach for generating optimal messages to seed
or change the discussion in an online community:
Danowski, J. A. (1982). A network-based content analysis methodology for
computer-mediated communication: An illustration with a computer
bulletin board, in M. Burgoon (Ed.), Communication Yearbook 5 (pp.
904-925). New Brunswick, NJ: Transaction Books.
