Does anyone know any open-source social networking sites?”
Social networking isn’t exactly a sector I’d have expected Linux developer Red Hat to jump into (insert joke about geeks socializing here), but that’s what they’ve done with Mugshot. Mugshot’s stated purpose is “to create a live social experience around entertainment,” and perhaps what’s most notable about Mugshot is that it’s open source, i.e. if you want you can download the source code to the Mugshot server and set up your own social networking site, and you can contribute code to the project as well. That’s something you’ll probably never see News Corp., Six Apart, or even AOL allow.
