I pushed the buttons to set up the site with Ning (seriously, it's really easy), but the idea really came from Howard Owens and Zac Echola, both of whom were fielding e-mail from interested "non-wired" journalists looking for a place like this in the wake of <a href="http://www.howardowens.com/2007/2008-objectives-for-todays-non-wired-journalist/" rel="nofollow">Howard's Dec. 2007 blog post</a>. I've seen comments to the effect that the site is comfortable in the touchy-feely way you describe, which, really, is the goal. All are welcome to learn and teach. Thanks!
