  3. About Ning

    Ning is an online platform for users to create their own social websites and social networks, launched in October 2005. Ning was co-founded by Marc Andreessen and Gina Bianchini. Ning is Andreessen's third startup (after Netscape and Opsware), and gets much of its notability from Andreessen's successes with those companies.

    Ning means "peace" in Chinese, as explained by Gina Bianchini on the company blog.
