A nice Ning-alike system for building and hosting social applications, with some good (albeit Flash-based) widget authoring and a good set of pre-built widgets and templates to make your own social site for (ad-supported) free. I still much prefer Ning, but this is a useful and usable alternative that is perhaps a little friendlier and quicker to come to terms with.

I am a professional learner, employed as a Full Professor and Associate Dean, Learning & Assessment, at Athabasca University, where I research lots of things broadly in the area of learning and technology, and I teach mainly in the School of Computing & Information Systems. I am a proud Canadian, though I was born in the UK. I am married, with two grown-up children, and three growing-up grandchildren. We all live in beautiful Vancouver.
