FourSquare: You Should Be Paying Attention

Freemium doesn't mean Free?
Yesterday the twitterverse and plurkoverse exploded with the news that Ning, a social network provider used in a wide variety of ways by educators in our area, will no longer offer free, ad-supported networks. Current free networks will have the opportunity to go premium (paid) or be "migrated" off the Ning servers. This announcement comes with the announcement that Ning is cutting their staff by 40%, as well.
And there was much wailing and gnashing of teeth.
