PeopleAggregator - An Open Source Social Network

Posted by ryuzaki0 on from the eye-keeeees-you dept.

prostoalex writes "When Orkut, LinkedIn, Friendster, Zaibatsu and Tribe.net just don't cut it, meet PeopleAggregator, an open-source, PHP-written, FOAF-based social network. There's the site and there's the source in case you decide to launch your own. I found out about PeopleAggregator reading this interview with Mark Canter on Read/Write Web today." I wish such sites would provide profile-conversion tools to encourage jumping ship from one to another.

    Doesn't it make you feel good to know that our freedoms are protected by politicans, lawyers and journalists.

    Damn! How hard is it to go meet your neighbors or even leave your room/apartment/house? Is it really that bad? I admit to being a geek and having a love for all things technological but I really don't understand all this whole social networking mumbo jumbo. Makes no sense to me. I like talking to people face to face as much as screen to screen.

    It is currently offline. I wonder if PHP can actually handle high load.

    I do not mean to troll, but I really dislike PHP. I find mod_perl and Java Servlets are such a better option for high traffic sites.
