ITC501 Blue - A Ning for Blue POD Group

I have created a Ning for Blue Group at the following link:
ITC501 Blue - A Ning for Blue POD Group.

It was very easy to set up and invite others to join. There is control over privacy and security because the administrator needs to invite members to join, but once in the site, all members are able to add to it. Ning has many possibilities for use in the classroom. It has forums, blogs, discussion board, email and chat, as well as the opportunity to share photos and videos. So far this is one of my preferred sites for use within schools. Unfortunately only one other POD member has so far responded, but that is a start.
