I am talking to a school that is interested in integrating a Ning with a Global K-12 Library Portal that have over 15,000 free educational web site and teachers can build lessons for free on it. We could in fact integrate collaborative Web 20 learning, child filter and library and all it takes is a link.<br />
If you look in the resources tab of my Ning you will see My Web Library or you can see thier technical demo on <a href="http://www.bascom.com" target="_blank">www.bascom.com</a>. My Ning…

The banner ad came as an unpleasant shock! I have another site that is ad-free. I was just setting up a new site when this popped up. I know it might not be different in intent but the face and general appearance looks threatening to people with younger or more sensitive audiences, I wish there was some middle ground. $25 / month to go ad-free is not possible. The Ning folks have been really good about educational sites becoming ad-free. I hope they can find a business model that encourages…

Unfortunately, this puts the onus on the user to block the ads. Since we know that most users do not use Firefox, let alone the Adblock Plus extension, most of the intended audience will see the questionable ads. Too bad for Ning--this will definitely hurt them in the long run!

Thank you for the heads-up. I will certainly have to discuss this with my administrators...<br />

What an unfortunate choice for NING to make.<br />
