GINA BIANCHINI ON THE COVER OF FAST COMPANY
You may remember my interview with the CEO of Ning, Gina Bianchini the beginning of this year, if you check out the new Fast Company Magazine for the month of March, you will see Gina right on the cover. A gorgeous woman with the intelligence to match her beauty. Congratulations Gina for all the amazing things coming your way, you deserve it!
If you didn't get a chance to catch that particular interview with Gina, I am posting her bio and the audio here again for you...it's worth a listen, Enjoy!
Gina Bianchini and Marc Andreessen founded Ning (which means Peace in Chinese) in October 2004 to give everyone the opportunity to create social networks. Two and a half years later, Ning powers over 90,000 social networks and counting.
From eBay sellers in Upstate New York to bead store owners in Maine, aspiring hip hop artists in New Jersey, pop culture junkies in New York City, college professors in Germany, young deviant artists in North Carolina, and even a few big media companies in LA, with Ning anyone can create the perfect social network for them.
What makes this all possible is the Ning Platform. As a platform, you don't have to appeal to Ning for the features you want. If you have the time and the inclination, you can build them yourself. It's the software equivalent of Home Depot. Platforms give everyone the freedom to create.
