The popular social networking site Ning allows you to create your own social network. The ability to create your own social network allows you to create a site that is centered on your individual tastes. Want a social network just for keeping in touch with your family? Perhaps you want a social network for your softball league? The choice of what social network you create is up to you.

Fortunately, Ning has made it is easy to create your own social network thanks in large part to the walk-through provided by Ning.

The first thing you need to do to create your own social network is to sign into your Ning account.

If do not already have an account, create one by clicking on Get a Ning ID. Creating an account is easy. Simply fill in your email address, name, password, and the code in the spam filter image.

You will also be asked for a PIN number for additional security. This is just like the PIN number for your bankcard. Type in a number you will remember, but something that is different than the PIN for your bankcard.
