Hi Cristina
I have been fiddling with the front page of Ning. Hope you don't mind. Please feel free to revert. Actually I think that we need a text box at the top or underneath the groups to explain what this Ning is for.

It would be agood idea to track usage of Ning and I have found out that you can do this under the manage tab by choosing network statistics. You need to sign up to Google Analytics (I use this to track my blog for example). This will help in our reporting later.

Are you ready for Virtual Worlds? Second Life is for real!!

Online Educa Berlin 08

I was in Berlin and not only did I have a great time, I also had the opportunity to seriously network and meet people I have been wanting to meet, and to talk to, for so long.
