This was never a feature of Ning I ever activated for my community, and it occupies a place somewhere between a Timeline post and a Blog post so I am sort of so-so about it.

Any reason why I shouldn't rename the URL (on the info page for the module from "ningmemo" to just "memo"? I want to remove all the Ning-ness I can from my JR community.

Yes, you can rename the module's url to 'memo'

TBH when I was developing the jrNingImport module and looking at these 'Notes' in the Ning archives, I wasn't sure what they were about. They just seemed to be little private notes to oneself. So as JR already had a jrPrivateNote and a jrNotify module, I called the new receiving module NingMemo, so as not to cause any confusion. Other imports I've done have had very few, or no note items, and no one else has raised any questions about them so I think they are a pretty inconsequential part of Ning ;-)

Thanks.

What I think I may do, for consistency, is rename every instance of Memo to Notes in the Language editor and then change the URL to Notes.

I am enforcing a 140 character limit for Timeline posts and Blogs can be any length with an image in them. So Note are a happy middle ground. If kept private (not posted to the timeline) they can be used as notes to self, not the community.

The jrPrivateNote module uses 'note' as its url, so renaming ningmemo to 'notes' would be ok but might cause some confusion down the road. Just an fyi :-)
