This video shows an interview with the CEO of Ning, in which she explains what distinguishes Ning from other online social networks and what features will enable Ning to thrive despite the overabundance of these tools.  The interviewers then discuss their own evaluation of why they feel Ning will be able to withstand competition from other social networks.

This video was very helpful in understanding exactly what a Ning is, what differentiates it from other social networks, and why I should use it to help promote a learning community in my school.
