Thing 22 Ning

I looked at all the Ning items that were listed in Thing 21 and I can see that you could develope a social network for people with like interest. One cool thing I thought Ning did was allow you to use several tools to communicate to one spot, so that in a social network someone might be really use to posting in a forum while others can still load video if they want. Until we had these customizable social networks we had to chat in one spot post pictures in another. This allows for one stop shopping. As for an idea of how I might use this I am not were sure yet, will have to think on this for awhile.
