I created a ning for the MLA tech team last year and that's what you somehow stumbled upon. It's an old Ning that was created prior to this new interface upgrade. The tech team used it just to have the experience. The idea posed was whether when you join MLA you could have a Ning for members and I see that this is what ALA is doing now. FYI - We also did a Ning early this year for MAPLA so they would get the idea too. Since then, Nings are really getting hot which is cool!

I'm having more fun there than in the Ning networks, which I find load too slowly for my caffeine-addled brain.
