Ning Problems Today Almost All Resolved

As you may have noticed, most of the day on Monday our K-12 Online Conference Ning was offline / not available. According to the official Ning status blog, all features except messaging and RSS feeds are back up and working as of this writing. We have no idea what the problem was with Ning today, but it was not limited to just our K12Online site, and we don’t think we can take the blame for overwhelming the entire domain with traffic! It appears this was just an unlucky coincidence that it happened on the first day of week 1 of our conference! Thankfully at this point, we are using multiple sites and our blog (this site) was up without any problems all day, as were our video hosting sites (DotSub and Blip.tv). We also used both our Twitter account and Facebook page to share status updates throughout the day.

If you have a smartphone or other mobile device capable of accessing the Internet, you can use the web address k12online.ning.com/m to access a mobile-optimized version of our Ning website.

Videos are not viewable/playable from this mobile Ning site, but you can use our podcast RSS feeds to directly view and play presentations on your mobile devices. We did announce today via Twitter and Facebook that our podcast RSS feeds are now included in the iTunes Podcast Directory. Please rate and comment on our iTunes podcast channels so we can hopefully become “featured” in iTunes. The more visibility our conference can have the better!

Thanks to a WordPress plug-in (WordPress Mobile Edition) we are using, hopefully our blog automatically shows up in a mobile-optimized format if you’re using a mobile device to view it.

We will keep our fingers crossed that today’s Ning problems will not recur for the rest of the conference!
