Sometimes I think that a post was on Ning but it was on Edublog and then I spent 30 min searching the wrong site. I personally think that Ning is the best, but I also like Wiki and Edublog.

I just don't want to over do it on the technology. I hope that we can find a nice balance where we can communicate, share, and collaborate with th best and easiest tools. If you feel these forums are good than I would love for you to start one and invite people over. My hope is that students here will take ownership of how the whole thing works. I will be here to share some expertise and answer questions, but I hope that you, the students, will take charge! I am always open to suggestions about anything! I would love to take a class that you teach. @Julia I love the idea of using forums, but how are these tools any different than the discussion boards on the Ning.

I really like it because it explains everything really good and I totally agree with you. I also think, that the ones that are already used to this kind of technology should help the ones that are new. However, it was a very interesting post and at the beginning when I was reading your post I didn't know what was Ning, but after reading the whole post I understood everything. Hope you visit my blog. :D Intrepid teacher, I think this post is really helpful. I really like it because it explains everything really good and I totally agree with you.

I just wanted to bring up the idea of a forum, maybe hosted by Proboards? When I taught an online class, it utilized the avaliable forum features (it wasn't on a proboards server but a vBulletin instead, but the latter requires a paid subscription...) and it was wonderfully helpful in allowing myself to jump in and discuss with my "students". I've also been using proboards for at least three years and find it incredibly easy to use, both as an admin and as a normal member. Discussions and lessons are very easily taught on a forum. Just a suggestion, I'd like to think that Intrepid Classroom is open for technology usage suggestions. :D I personally think that the Ning is one of Intrepid Classroom’s largest (and easiest to use) assets.
