The Growth of Ning and the "Viral Expansion Loop"

Dana_W got me interested in Ning with her post earlier but instead of asking "WTF is Ning", I did a little research and found this very interesting post about social sites and viral marketing.

I thought many of you would benefit from reading this, I know I did!

Very interesting article about Ning, I do appreciate you sharing with us all.

Is this a community you are apart of? How has it been working if so? Explosive by any means?

Justin,

I just found Ning about an hour ago and was researching it when I found that link.

I'm working on a local community portal and Ning might be a good way to get it up and going while I work on the Joomla learning.

I wasn't pointing out Ning so much as the article about viral business models.
