Hi Artur,

It was via a very reliable social media expert who is a friend. URL here: http://techcrunch.com/2010/04/15/nings-bubble-bursts-no-more-free-networks-cuts-40-of-staff/

Doesn't seem inspired by Crowdvine. Their offer was buried way down in the comments stream.

Glad to hear we will continue for the present.

Best,
Wendy

Hi Wendy:

Can you please clarify where you have read that and, if it was online, send the URL?

I have not heard of anything like that and all the NING sites that I have created or joined are running well. The critical mass of the NING business is coming up and the ads pay for the service.

Anyhow, since we have decided to suspend the ads over there, the OST NING is considered a Premium account.

Regards

Artur

Hi Lisa and all those working on the OS Ning site,

Just read that Ning is ending its free service and slashing staff to focus on its premium account products. Will this affect our Ning site?

Saw that Crowdvine is offering support to shift networks to their system (they support openID, facebook, and twitter).

Sad to see this happen.  Ning was an interesting experiment.

Best,
Wendy
