Tips for facilitators in Ning

Joitske Hulsebosch eLearning

I've been exploring Ning a little further than I did and compared it to other forums like socialgo, collectivex and grou.ps. Gro.ups is open source, has a lot of similar functionalities to ning (and more- you can upload files easily) and is also without advertisements (for free!). Hosting on your own domain.

Option 3: Your own social network platform like Ning , group site , grou.ps , Socialgo , collectivex , MINDZ. You can often host your own domain (redirect to a different Web address) or support for some payment. Content is hosted externally. There is also open source software that is compatible for this purpose.
