Ning is the most promising social network site since Facebook. Anyone can create their own network or choose other networks to participate in.

It has a ton of potential for online schools, classrooms, and group projects. Here's what a new Educause report has to say about it:
"Ning is an online service that allows users to create their own social networks and join and participate in other networks. No technical skill is required to set up a social network, and there are no limits to the number of networks a user can join. Users of Ning social networks have access to functionality similar to that of more well-known social networks, such as Facebook and MySpace. Various features allow users to read news or learn about related events, join groups, read and comment on blog entries, view photos and videos, and other activities as set up by the network creator."
Check out the full report for ideas on new was Ning can be used.
