[Noisebridge-discuss] Noisebridge has a (potentially) new communication medium: The Noisebridge ning network!

[Ani Niow]

Ok, before this turns into [drama], lets try to be a bit more diplomatic
shall we?


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?

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.

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 "http://noisebridge.whatever.com".

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.


Thanks!


-Ani
