Social Platform Ning Adds Apps
Ning, a social platform that allows users to create their own niche social networks, announces the addition of Ning Apps, which are OpenSocial applications that Ning network creators can add to their social network’s main page. This system will allow developers to create applications that can be syndicated across any Ning network. For example a Ticketmaster app would allow a band, who uses the Ning platform for their website, to embed an app on their main page to promote ticket sales of their shows. Currently in private beta, Ning Apps should roll out to all users by the end of May.
