    I heard you can build a social network site using CMS. How do I exactly do it?

    I've seen one at www.blogflap.com

    You could also use JomSocial with Joomla, although it costs around $150 (not sure if you want a free solution or not).

    JomSocial is a Joomla component so you can use it with any Joomla template.

    you all go on about jomsocial but completely forget to mention community builder which is bizarre since community builder has been out much longer than jomsocial and has a lot more plugins for it

    and since community builder is free it is definitely worth a look

    also take a look at comuna series of templates from templateplazza especially the latest one, cb have a facebook looking type of template also
