Lots of ideas and resources in the comments here. Can we hear more about your original idea. How do yo plan to use social networking? Your concept might inspire the rest of us to see another application for this concept.<br />

In 2006, it released Elgg Spaces - touted as is the first ever service to allow you to create your own truly independent social networking site. They are now Eduspaces (to represent their mostly educational status) and there are presently over 13,000 users and some schools have jumped in big-time. Worth checking out.

Thank you nlowell! We are looking for different ways to share with technology leaders new and unique tools that may match the specific needs of a school district. I am really liking the design of this ning and the flexibility and ease of use to model communication strategies.

With regard to using Ning, and whether you should create your own network or use your page. I'd start by having them join Classroom 2.0, so they can see the discussion going on and dip their toes in, then also set up a social network, if you want, for your smaller group. My 2 cents. :)

Ya. I own my own spaces, too. <br />

Personally, I think renting host space from Bluehost or Dreamhost should be a pre-requisite for anybody who's serious about working out here in this space. Nothing educates like becoming an owner. :)<br />
<br />
it's cheap, too. Two years worth of more server than you can use is less than the cost of 2 venti latte's a month. it's so cheap, I bought one for my wife to get her high bandwidth graphics off my backbone :)

You could also look into Netcipia (<a href="http://www.netcipia.com">http://www.netcipia.com</a>) or Wikidot (<a href="http://www.wikidot.com/">http://www.wikidot.com/</a>) Personally, I like to get my vehicle "in house" or at least hosted. I have had several tragedies of sites going down or not being available when we needed it most in my long history. Thus, I come back to Moodle or Elgg.<br />
There are so many options, you need to really think what you want it to do.
