http://2008.drupalcamptoronto.org/content/ build-your-own-social-network-with-drupal
some modules to check out to improve social functionality on a drupal site:
- advanced forum: http://drupal.org/project/advanced_forum
- user relationships [an improvement on buddylist]: http://drupal.org/project/user_relationships
- openid [adds openid authentication - core in drupal 6]: http://drupal.org/project/openid
- activity [feeds of user activity]: http://drupal.org/project/activity
- views bookmark [social bookmarking]: http://drupal.org/project/views_bookmark
- notifications [emails info about posts]: http://drupal.org/project/notification
or possibly workflow ng - various facebook integration modules [might be useful]: cf. http://groups.drupal.org/facebook-api
no-one has used usertags: http://drupal.org/project/user_tags
question: how to get feeds from other places into profile pages?
- try feedapi as a way to pull feeds from various services -- see http://drupal.org/project/feedapi http://drupal.org/node/207892 for discussion
- cck fields in profiles? (check to see if you can get the rss to display that way)
followup:
- social networking on drupal.org: http://groups.drupal.org/social-networking-sites
- facebook api group: http://groups.drupal.org/facebook-api
