Ning seems to be a valuable resource and web tool for those who are ready to use it. I’m not there yet.
Nancy Willard’s article is a good overview for anyone new to the concept of social networking. Even if social networking is not available in the classroom, students should be educated in how to create safe connections in a social networking environment.
I think that Ning is a great way for group members to stay in touch. These groups could be family members, alumni of a particular school, special interest groups, or travel groups.
I did enjoy searching for members I know in the Classroom 2.0.
