Glam Media is now Mode Media Corp!

You may have seen a few months ago that Ning's parent company Glam Media was in the process of deciding on a new name to reflect its varied vertical reach. Today at the Digital Content Newfronts we made a very exciting announcement and we're happy to tell you that Glam Media is now Mode Media Corp.

Along with the name change comes some really exciting programs for original content including 10 new video series. You can find more information about the name change here.

What's Changing For Your Networks?

Just a word. "Ning | Glam Media" as it appears in your Ning 3.0 Dashboard Bar and "Ning | Glam Social" as it appears in the footer will change to "Ning | Mode Media Corp" and "Ning | Mode Social" respectively. You should see these changes roll out in the coming days.

        Perhaps but there have been so many changes that we all need to see where it is going. Some may have no trouble handling forever increasing prices which are jumping higher at too great of a rate per change. Some of us are struggling hard to be able to afford it for a multitude of reasons, many of which are economy based and beyond our control. The point I am expressing is that we are all a bit impatient, and a bit apprehensive. Those may not be two human qualities which are considered to be optimum, but they exist regardless. Again I point out the fact that NCs simply need to feel understood, and reassured, instead of feeling pacified on one side, and fluffed off on the other, or considered a mere nuisance to to be impatiently responded to. Ahead of time I am not accusing anyone here of treating the NCs badly, I am simply trying to encourage a sense of understanding for the NCs so that they don't feel such a strong sense of duress. That would, after all, be treating them with cordiality, and respect. That would go a long way in having them respond with the same attitude in return.

Thank God I stopped a moment to read this. I just had to change the link lable on my footer. I made it so that I manually control it so the change for me was not automatic. LOL

  Hi caro, my apologies, but I can't quite understand what you're looking for help with. If you need help with your network, can you submit a ticket so that our support team can assist you?

when u see a car u like ulook for a label toi knowwhat kinda caqr u want to buy

it is essential to the business that when ppl see a network they like they can know where they can create 1 like it (platform not a carbon copy of your exact site)

if you want continuesd improvements nings got to grow to afford them

and growth isentirely dependent on being found

i used to work for libertynet (not sure it still exists) part odf the hosting requiremnents was to insert a  tag that said something like hostred by libertynet.org (as a link) and a dozenb or so lonks to the network info and categoiries of other sites we hosted

this footer helped our growth helped other organizations find us

and helped them find eachother

it was essentrial

and our only requirement as we hosted free provided nearly freee internet access (12 dollars a year) and free web design website strategy planning tech support u name it

all we required was that sites help us help others by includingt that footer with links

and it is an efective strategy
