Who was I kidding right? I should have known myself better in that me playing with the idea of creating a NING network for the podcast would just lead me to actually making a NING network for the podcast!
For those unaware as to what a NING Network is, a NING network is like having Myspace for yourself and your friends (best analogy possible, and similar to webs.com). I don't mean a myspace page for you and your friends, I mean Myspace.com itself! And if you're already on Witch School (
http://www.witchschool.com/) or Paganspace.net (http://figure_it_out) then you're already on the NING Network and you should join the show site on there as well! :-)
The Show NING Network combines all of the regular features found on the website and other social networking sites. There is a chat, a forum, a place for pictures and video. It allows members who have their own pages on the network (similar to having a myspace, paganspace, or facebook page). The Frappr map can be found there, there is also a player for the show so the podcast can be listened to. RSS feeds for the regular show blog and a blog for the show notes are also found there. Members can create groups, friend other members, chat, post pictures and videos, as well as post in the forum which may become the official show forum as I already allowed the network chat room to replace the show chat room since it had it's own and it just functions better.
The NING Network site could become a serious central hub for the podcast along with the website (
http://www.infinite-beyond.com/) which will still contain all show links, show info, scripts, and the library. It could really establish an interesting online aspect to the show itself, it just needs YOU to help make live up to its full potential!
The NING network can be found at
http://infinite-beyond.ning.com/ and a link for it is also listed within the sidebar on the show website.
Please become a part of network!
Thank you everyone for your time, attention, and support!
