Ning really makes it easy to do one of these. If several people were interested in a topic, they can easily pull together a few speakers, create a ning group and set up a quick conference. I just had an idea for a new business. The tools are there to make these things happen. Or you could do it as a Facebook group.

Q : If you have unique content for a specific area of business, like brand marketers, is a group on LinkedIn better than creation of your own business to business network ? I often find that Ning isn't that great for specialized content. I have a tendency to mix business and fun. Yes, you can create a group.

They are all very busy. But Facebook , LinkedIn , Ning and IntroNetworks are all great tools for having academically focused learning communities in an online setting. "That day you have scheduled for a test isn't good for me." or "Can I study a different topic, I don't like that one." They are under tremendous amounts of stress.
