I'm thinking of trying a Hosted Wordpress with the Buddypress plugin. WP plays nice with FB and Twitter et all

I learned of this from Maria Droujkova at the Open Kollab list.

I also note that Dreamfish http://www.dreamfish.com has made nice use of
open source Elgg.  What they have is not yet convincing to me though as
a social networking platform.

At this point, I'm skeptical of any social networking platform that
doesn't integrate in some smart way with activity on Facebook, Twitter,
etc.  I think there's a real need for a cultural code like I'm trying to
do with http://www.12questions.org because I think online venues of
themselves aren't enough to foster a culture.
