Meaning no disrespect, as I am on a few 'Ning' networks myself, but there is nothing that Ning offers that a content management system does not. Absolutely nothing.
What it also offers is dependence. I, myself, find such dependence intolerable but others have different opinions that I will respect. It also means people learning Yet Another Way To Do Things, with questionable benefit. And I also offer, here and now, that the discussion has turned from the core: The Future of DDN. If we're going to go back and forth on what medium we'll use to discuss the future, we'll watch calendar months go by. Tick Tock.
