There were quite a few people at the workshop this week using Ning for local and other networks. I expect Amy and I will be looking at ways to enhance this site. Is it worth setting up a group called ... um ... Ning things ... to…"

I've been exploring this recently from a slightly techie angle. Using the 'Analytics' code option from the Manage interface it is possible to add in all sorts of extra Javascript which, with use of a library like jQuery…"

Alternatives for the Have-not-Nings
Nings are great for setting up your own social networks and for making connections with people with similar interests and infinitely preferable in my view to Facebook for social networking. The best example of a Ning I know is Blurbonline, which has been embraced lovingly by the creative communities and in particular an individual who I had been trying and failing for years to get socially networked.But Nings undoubtedly have their flaws.

Talk About Local
The world doesn't need another Ning, so this group is here to facilitate networking and information-sharing between people involved or interested in Talk About Local, kicking off with our Unconference on 3 October.

chris said… - hi Clare, I have great difficulty accessing this site, so can't really chat much on it. Ning sites are not allowed on our network, haven't got to the bottom of it yet, but 180 of us can't access them without putting an 's' at the end of http on every page click, very annoying and hard to explain to newbies.
I will check back if you email me and do the best I can.
