Open source social networking software – BuddyPress!
Leave it up to the open source community to release a free, open-source platform for social networks to indirectly compete with the currently in place ones like Facebook and Myspace.
It’s definitely an interesting concept though, especially if there ever becomes a way for users to “link” their networks together. Other interesting addon’s for it would be things like jabber integration, querying of common IRC servers to see online/offline status, and controlling many blogs remotely from your profile.
I’m sure very shortly large projects like Ubuntu and Debian will adopt this in order to link their users to each other.
