Online Social Collaboration Community

There's a new resource in town.  Gling is a brand new social collaboration community.  It is totally free and the content is member-driven.  It combines several social networking forums; members can use the site as a base from which to blog, tweet and post comments.  It is primarily focused on recipes, gluten-free friendly locations and foods. 

So that's the short and dirty.  The real story is that this resource has the potential to be a truly useful, supportive community for those who have celiac or cannot eat gluten.  It is a distinctly user-friendly site.  It's easy on the eyes, easy to navigate, and easy to contribute.  Community members are very welcoming.  Within a day of joining the site, I had four previously unknown people "friend" me, which gives me access to their resources.  As noted, it is new.  Which means that certain of the resources have not had time to get to maximum capacity of usefulness.  The locations section is virtually empty for DC.  We need members to add gluten-free hot spots.  Still, there are great recipes and everyone is there for a single purpose: to spread the word about gluten-free living. 

Your mission if you choose to accept it: Sign up for gling and see if we can get the DC location filled with at least twenty spots in the next two weeks.  Go!
