Anybody else really in to social networking type software/scripts?

[alley]

I really dig em'!

I mean I love any type of cms, wiki, blog, or community based type scripts.
Seems I'm not alone as most personal and business sites are starting to look in to making their sites more interactive.

What are your thoughts on this if any?

I Really like wordpress its a great idear and is brilliant for blogs also fairly easy to setup.

Im also into Forums alot met a few friends of them also it kills some time

[Decker]

Love the idea, but it would take a load of time to manage properly.

Like a forum it needs admins and mods, but with a site allowing X amount of users doing whatever who has the time to monitor it all?

[alley]

Yeah .. lots of mods would be a good idea

As decker said, they are prone to abuse, but if you can keep that under manage, I love it. Creates a lot of "stickiness" to your site [is that term outdated?]

Aren't forums basically the first form of social networking? ..or was it email?

[Matt8]
