I need to make a website that functions like cardomain.com and myspace. I need a place site were local kids can create their own page for a local school. Not trying to compete with them at all. What can you recommend that is easy to maintain and user friendly. I would appreciate links to any programs that you can recommend. I really appreciate your help.
on the cheaper side , there are services like http://www.ning.com that offer white-label social networks then there are self-hosted solutions like http://www.phpfox.com/
