    Hi,

    I'm actually looking for an open source social network to start a social network. I could build one from scratch but I'm sure there's something out there I can start from. What are your suggestions?

    Thanks!

    Elgg has limited documentation available.
    Go for joomla . You will get lot of documentation about it.
    Also large number of templates are available.

    We've been very happy with both Dolphin and Phpfox.

    Dolphin is better if you dont mind branding, and phpfox is the best if you can spend the $300.

    I run modification sites for both of these:

    DolphinElite.com
    Konsort.org
