social networking site

Hi! I am newbie, and seeking guidance in building my first social networking site.

I am currently structuring the modules, I need.

The concept is a social networking site for fashion and beauty bloggers. I want to include:
1. A directory list, where the thumbnail of their blog sites will show.
2. 'claim blog' feature, where I could ask them to put a certain code in their site, and my site will crawl it to verify blog site ownership.
3. And a filed box where they can submit a link of their blogpost.

Voting and achievements too.

Hi,

like everybody here, I'm working on the "next big thing" :) ... probably it will never go online, it's just for my diploma.

Anyway, the site is supposed to be a networking site for students studying abroad. Signing up, I have to choose a city (where I will go to). As a member, I have access to this public "city area" (let's say "everybody's Barcelona"), where people can share their knowledge etc. And there's got to be a private area (like "my very own Barcelona"), where every user can have his own blog, calendar, gallery, ...

One of the topics being discussed in a side group last night involved the hope for a site that performed ratings of existing modules which could guide Drupalers to getting what they need in a shorter period of time.

I remembered running across the below site a short time ago, which is described as being a community-powered rating and review service dedicated to helping people to find the best Drupal modules for their projects.

John Forsythe made the announcement earlier this year.

I am looking into using Drupal for a new social network aimed at professional and collegiate athletes (NBA, NFL, NCAA, etc.) which will allow them to connect with their fanbase which will also have access to the site membership. The requirements (whick my first platform choice, Elgg, did not adequately meet -- which, in turn, led me to Drupal by recommendation) are to have several different user types related to the industry including fans, teams, universities and career managers (or athlete agents, if you will).

Hello there,

I'm a student Communication Multimedia Design - currently doing a graduation investigation and project about the "Integration of social networking sites in Drupal".

Investigation

My investigation brings me first to a technical question: which current (Drupal 5) modules give an answer to this question?

I did an investigation and found 19 contributed modules that make integration possible for content coming from a typical social networking site into Drupal.

• Activity Stream
• Advogato
• Delicious
• Digg this
• Embedded Media Field

I was wondering if there is a Install Profile for Social Networking Sites.

I checked it up at the Distribution profiles group and searched for "Social Networking" and found nothing. Are there any efforts in building a install profile for social networking sites? I checked up at Social Networking Sites and found nothing about installation profiles.

Has there been already an effort.

And if not a installation profile, then can we formulate a site recipe?

Hi All,

I am a total newbie to Drupal and CMS's, but I am very much comfortable in PHP programming. I am trying
to build a community site. I need advise on how to go about building such a site.

I want to know, how to use DRUPAL with other CMS's like PHPizabi and Dolphin. I felt, both PHPizabi and Dolphin are very good community site. What modules do I need to use and how can I customize the Drupal configuration with any one of two CMS's? Please let me know, how to integrate the community sites with Drupal. Please suggest your advises.
