New Apps for Ning/Project Management Options

Came across these two things posted on another Ning network I'm on, and thought it would be worth sharing, especially given our discussion tomorrow on project management tools:

1) "Regarding the features and functions that are in the design pipeline, check out this post on Ning Apps, which will be live in mid-September. I think you’ll like a lot of these tools and they’ll be helpful for your online community: http://mashable.com/2009/05/06/ning-apps/"

It looks like a number of these apps might help with our use of ning as a project management tools -- among them, an integrated wiki, Google Docs, Zoho tools. Some might have available before as widgets, but now it looks like it might be even easier.

2) This other post shared some of the example sites that utilize the Ning platform. We might be able to mine them for ideas on project management, etc.
