Thing 26

I joined the Ning during the first 23 Things....and haven't been back. In fact, I sorta forgot what it was, and went back to the 23 Things website and re-read some information. So today I updated my profile, added a profile picture, uploaded some other photos and left a comment on one of the forum topics. I also read through several of the forums and looked at the groups and photos. 

I can see that this would be a useful tool for projects such as these Things. Someone's having trouble doing something and posts a question. Someone else posts an answer. A way to provide long-distance support. 

Could this be used in a library setting, for library users? Maybe in a reading program that had activities and projects? Or some kind of writing workshops/classes?

This may be a Thing I don't use much, but I can see there are some real-life applications.
