EAST LANSING (AP) -- A Florida-based social networking company is setting up shop on the campus of Michigan State University.

Naples, Fla.-based INGage Networks says it will create about 24 jobs with its research and development center in Michigan State's Communication Arts and Sciences building.

The university says it already has several joint projects with INGage aimed at creating and retaining jobs in the state.

The MSU Extension is in line to get a system for better two-way communication with farmers and others statewide. INGage Networks offers social media services to private businesses, nonprofit groups and government agencies.
