The recent private equity acquisition of NING is the best thing that has happened to it in the 9 years that I have been using the platform. It has begun to inject confidence into their creators. The integration with creators in the help forum and the live-online help are awesome and great beginnings. But, because the the previous NING leadership was so negligent, they need to do more. I recently filed a ticket because my search function wasn't working and it took 2 weeks to get a resolution- that's not good enough. They also need to address the following for 2.0 and 3.0, and do it quickly. 1. Better monetization of the mobile version. This is 40% of our traffic and I can't put any ads in front of these users. 2. Third-party creativity. They need to make the site easily modifiable so creators can implement 3rd party apps and tools. 3. Reliable emailing tools - Why should I need to get Constant Contact? 4. New Templates
