Ning Phasing out Free Sites - What Are Your Thoughts?

Today, Ning announced a monumental change in it's business plan. This is good news and bad news. For premium networks, it's probably good news; in that, it's what most premium networks thought they were investing in, in the first place. It will make the premium Ning Networks closer to white label, and likely more valuable assets. It is bad news and extremely sad for some free Ning Networks. Here's an excerpt from the announcement by Ning's CEO - Jason…

Ning Directory Site Name and Logo Change - Reasons?

My favorite synonyms of all times, LOL!

Just a silly posting on my blog, but not a bad practice for all of us:

Often, I will look up the synonyms for words. I do this when I'm composing content on the Ning Directory, because of our International membership and audience. I like to think of the possibilities on some words, and how they might translate - - hopefully, well. I was looking up synonyms for the word "bloating", since I had added it to THE LIST, while explaining why we ask that Ning Network Creators limit their listings… Continue
