Me: Okay, but I’m not the person to ask, you should have you should have gone to Lunch 2.0 and asked Gina yourself.
F—: How does it compare to Facebook? Does it feel like you are creating more of a community?
Me: Facebook is best for personal social networking. (Among other things,) Ning is basically Yahoo! groups for Web 2.0 (…or they should head that direction). 🙂
F—: I see. Is there any other sites doing similar stuff?
Me: Yeah, I think there are a couple.
F—: Cool. Thanks.
Me: No problem.
Anyone at Ning want to add something?
