Angela, I was thinking the very same thing. There are a lot of social networking sites to tie into, but I'd like to be more than just a subdomain off another site. We need our our own place. A friend of mine and I are playing around with some open source products which would keep us from having to develop something from scratch. I'll let you know what we come up with.

We do get very busy and forget to help the next person up. Everyone has their own ideas and agendas, so we get tied up in making our dream happen. I hope we can all come up with some ideas at the Blogging While Brown conference. I see you all are a keynote. Can't wait to hear what you've got.

@mega: I look forward to hearing what you find.

@lynne: Yeah I know the only thing I could find that somewhat collaborated services was a new product from Meetup called Meetup Alliance.
http://www.meetupalliance.com/
So far they only include groups from Facebook, meetup, MySpace, google, and yahoo.

This is dope. And you didn't use Ning to do it -- definitely dope. I like that you went with CW's product. I too will poke around and figure out some extras you might be able to do there.

But I gotta' play devil's advocate here. Maybe you should still create a blackweb2.0 fan page on Facebook too. It doesn't hurt to have a lot of options for bringing people together. I understand that would be a lot to manage if you had both going on -- I'm still waiting for someone to find a solution to make all of these things collaborate and cooperate with one another. I know, we wouldn't live in a capitalist society and no one would make money if you could manage a ning network and a collectivex group a the same time.

I am on board. The CollectiveX platform has some potential in facilitating additional networking experiences. I will poke around abit to find out how to best exploit it's capabilities and report back.
Thanks for the invite to check it out Angela.
