  • It has much better ,updated skins than Ning http://wordframe.com/product/community/skins/
  • It is much better ,well suited for creating content
  • It can use existing RSS feeds , and almost create a seamless focused community out in 5 minutes flat.
  • It can potentially be used within organizations in intranet installations as well for in house content management and corporate blogging.
  • It is soon going to be open source and give APIs away for third party development as well.

Ning.com is having many more users, and is quite good in flexibility in terms of Questions and Answers, Forums, Groups, Friend  Creation . It’s design is okay- some of the skins could do with a Web 2.0 makeover. Above all it is free.

 

They are actually aimed at different segments ( I hope !!) so while Ning encourages focused social networking , Wordframe is more on focused blog /content heavy networking. One of the best Ning sites I have seen is www.analyticbrdige.com and one of the best Wordframe sites I have seen is www.smartdatacollective.com ( for Data related people ) and www.socialmediatoday.com ( for Online Media related people).

So do you have a blog – join one or both these communities , share your RSS feed and watch you visibility and viewership go up.

You are an occasional blogger and would rather read instead- join one or both these communities (that gives you commenting freedom), read other feeds and watch you understanding and knowledge go up.

 

Disclaimer- I have been Blogger of the Week on Social Media Today, and Member of the Month on Analytic Bridge (see the right sidebar on www.decisionstats.com ). In addition I have acted as a consultant and vendor for both of them in various parts of time and am acquainted to both the founders.

Ajay -Do I think there is value in joining them – Yes ! It has given me more knowledge and perspective than I could ever hope to get working on my own sitting in suburban Delhi, India.

As a Hindi saying ( apt on online networking would go)- 1 and 1 make 11. That in summary is the power of offline and online networking and Ning and Wordframe help you do that.
