Flatpicking Guitar NetworkThe folks at Flatpicking Guitar magazine has launched a new web site which they call The Flatpicking Guitar Network.

It is designed like popular social networking sites (MySpace, Face Book) and allows users to post their own photos, news and videos and fosters easy online communication among like-minded flatpickers. Users can also post information about events of interest to flatpickers, or participate in a flatpickers forum.

The site is powered by Ning, a popular engine for creating social networks online, and The Flatpicking Guitar Network already has over 700 registered users.
