This has been a long time coming (like months ago), however, we’ve been busy adding new websites to our network. We still have a few more sites to go including a fashion and movie site. That’s one fashion site and one movie site, not a site about fashion in movies. Anyway, some people felt that comments in certain areas like Blogs or Social News should be worth more than comments in forum games. That makes sense to me. Here’s a breakdown of the changes: More »

Rarely do we blog about staffing changes or new bloggers anymore, but this is somewhat important. We’ve been looking for someone to manage Ningin’s editorial for awhile now. Turns out that someone was much closer than we realized. So everyone, please congratulate Jinra on her new promotion as she is now the Matriarch of Ningin! Well, technically her title is Creative Director cuz that sounds more official-like. More »

With so many things going on, we haven’t had much time to do the planned re-design of our sister site Girlybubble. So we’re just going to use the old design while we restart the site. Besides a redesign, it was also planned to narrow the theme and scope from all things girly to all things pretty and cute. That much we can do easily. You’ll be happy to know that our own Princess of Cute, Sarah Kim of the Ningin famous “Missy Kim Favorites” column will be writing for our Girlybubble site. More »

For the 3rd time this year, we’ve changed the Ningin layout based on numerous feedback and critiques. So thanks to everyone who contributed their thoughts and opinions! We hope you find this incarnation a little easier to use and a little easier on the eyes. (You might press F5 to refresh your browser if things look weird.) Though keep in mind that Ningin is constantly a work in progress. There are many more features and applications we have on our roadmap. Not only that, but we’re in the process of adding many, many more bloggers in the next few weeks. Expect more events, more content partnerships, and more great things in general.

One minor change that we’ve made somewhat unceremoniously a couple of weeks ago is our tagline – from Asian Media Exchange to Asian Media Community. (How many people actually noticed that?) We feel that the word “community” fits us better because that’s in a nutshell who and what we are. With the help of you, our users, Ningin is a community of people interested in all things related to Asian media. Wonderful things tend to happen when you put people together with similar interests and that’s been a big driver of growth and ideas for us.
