KickApps

So, I just discovered this other site called KickApps. I wanted to use it for my social network created on Ning. But I realized that the stuff KickApps provides is to create a social network, and Ning already does that. So, I might be using it on this blog.
I've been talking about KickApps and haven't yet told you what it is. Create and account for free, and your able to add widgets to your site/blog/social network/anything else. Here's a little snippet from the site:

"It's easy to create an open portal experience to and from your community. Either link an existing site via href tags, create Widgets that open the door to your website from anywhere in the world, or use our premade HOMEPAGE to get started right away!"

So, that's what it is. Connects you with the viewers.

"
Don't have a website? No problem! You can use our pre-designed Homepage. It's optional to use, and won't affect your community if you choose not to use it."

You don't even need a website, how cool is that?




Ning

So, I just discovered this new site called Ning. What an interesting site. I've been wondering when someone would create something like this. What is it? Well, it's a social network creator. Like Blogger, except for the fact that Blogger is a blog creator. Ning is a social network creator. Using its easy to use drag and drop feature, the many templates, built-in blog, built-in forum, personal page for members of your network, and the ability to edit CSS and HTML you can create well-organized and fast-developing social network for your friends or anyone for FREE. Oh, did I mention that it's free? If, you don't have a domain name, it's ok. You can get a subdomain name (younetwork.ning.com). Ning is running on beta, so their are many things yet to be developed. However, I have not found any bugs myself. Does that mean I use it? Yes, it does. I have created the network Web Developing Help also known as webDhelp. Why? Well, I was bored and I need some help myself. So, check it out. (I think I set it to offline right now, maybe it'll be back up in a few...days).
