Demo - Adding a poll on Poll Daddy - pollDaddy.zip
OWS - Assignment #4 - Community Site
Continue to work on the creation of your Micro Social Networking Site
Media: Ning
Example: http://cmotion.ning.com/
1) Use your theme as a basis for creating a shorter community name. *This can also be your iteration 2 logo design effort.
2) Make a tagline that will appear with the community name.
Taglines are probably the second most noticeable element of a business identity. With just a few words, a tagline must be understandable, summarize the product or service offering, build trust, or incite to buy.

3) Create a site using Ning.com to build a community interested in your theme and related
subjects.
4) Create an aesthetically appropriate banner that includes your community name and a “tagline”. Dimensions for the banner: maximum width 925 pixels, height as appropriate, no bigger than 250K, 72dpi, png format
5) Choose your colors and layout from the provided templates and customize. Use one or
more color(s) from the color (palette/mood) project as a starting point..
6) Look at other Ning sites by picking from the various categories (Networking, Causes, etc.) at ning.com
**The goal for creating this community is to solicit ideas from its members as to
what product or service might result from the community’s theme. You will use
one or more of these ideas for future assignments.***
7) Weave questions about your theme into your community’s discussion, postings, etc.
8) Also include a poll using poll daddy (see below instructions) to add the poll,with options to choose various proposed products or services.
9) Under the “Notes” section, write an introductory statement. (Everyone should have this statement checked and edited by someone who speaks English as their first language.)
10) Also include these elements in your site (add others as appropriate):
*The completed sound assignment as a audio signature for the community

*10 or more relevant posts to articles, images or blog posts
*Three or more existing videos relating to your theme.

11) Solicit people to join your community. You will need a minimum of 15 members.
