[Hidden-tech] Social networking platform provider?

[Tom Adams ~ Reelife Productions & Folktography]

two good examples of burgeoning ning networks are
valleyshare<http://www.valleyartshare.com/> (open
network) and allthingswilliamsburg.ning.com (I co-created/ closed network).

They're a great (and FREE) way for people within a certain group or niche to
communicate, post photos, videos, create groups..basically like a localized
version of facebook ...there are a few layout and administrative limitations
but nothing to really complain about...definitely serve the purpose well,
with very little oversight/management/upkeep needed.

come to think of it...facebook groups might do the trick for your client
 too.you can have a closed or public fb group. with all its shortcomings and
weird anomalies, fb is quite a powerful little monster...

Regards,

Tom Adams
