Ok, before this turns into [drama], lets try to be a bit more diplomatic shall we?<div><br></div><div><br></div><div>Dear Noisebridge Ning person, as David mentioned, no one here is familiar with your username. Are you new here or have you been involved with Noisebridge for awhile?</div>
<div><br></div><div>As far as the ads go, some may have differing opinions, but Noisebridge has accounts on other online services that are ad supported, such as YouTube and Blip.tv and no objections were raised, therefore the existence of ads is not a huge objection I have to its existence or our association with this.</div>
<div><br></div><div>Also, the source code is not given for other sites we have our name under, such as the aforementioned Blip and YouTube. Again, no objections were raised that we are associating with a non-open source web service. If you demand the source of this site, please be consistent and request the source of everything else that's "<a href="http://noisebridge.whatever.com">http://noisebridge.whatever.com</a>".</div>
<div><br></div><div>Anyway, back to this unnamed Noisebridge Ning individual, thank you for participating in do-ocracy and creating a tool that some people would use. I am still confused at what purpose it serves that other networks do not and how you hope for it to be used. I have not heard of this site before now so input from yourself on how to use this new tool would be appreciated.</div>
<div><br></div><div><br></div><div>Thanks!</div><div><br></div><div><br></div><div>-Ani</div><div><br></div><div><br><br><div class="gmail_quote">2009/12/19 David Stainton <span dir="ltr"><<a href="mailto:dstainton415@gmail.com">dstainton415@gmail.com</a>></span><br>
<blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin:0 0 0 .8ex;border-left:1px #ccc solid;padding-left:1ex;">Greetings!<br>
<br>
First off... who are you? I am not familiar with your pseudonym noisebridgening.<br>
<br>
Now for the real question:<br>
Why the fuck is there a banner ad on <a href="http://noisebridge.ning.com/" target="_blank">http://noisebridge.ning.com/</a> ???<br>
Seriously wtf?<br>
Please explain why our anarchist collective non-profit 501c3 hacker space needs<br>
to be advertising for evil corporate entities such as <a href="http://match.com" target="_blank">match.com</a>?<br>
<br>
Also you stated this software is free.<br>
Please tell us where to get the source code for it.<br>
I would like to at least briefly review the code.... thanks.<br>
