I viewed all 5 of the Nings samples. I am not into that kind of networking, branching out to specific themes or topics. I have a facebook account and I do enjoy reading everyones posts. I don't play the games, do contest, or send gifts on facebook. I am not that kind of a downtime person. I just like reading up on everyones day and posting stuff about my day and viewing some peoples photos that post. It is pure social, leisure entertainment to me. I have some friends that play all kinds of games offered by facebook. That bores me...weird I know but I have no interest in devoting my time. I don't play video games either. Bet you're not surprised...right.!? On that note, I can see the value to use a NING for a class as a network project to design a site, post views, post links and updates as a sort of network research project that will have a value to them and continue to grow as they grow if they choose to keep it up and running. That would be cool.
SO in conclusion. I liked it and see that students would love to use their tech skills and knowledge to design and activate a social network page for themselves. They would love it and do it with great ease I am sure.
