There are a bunch of open source social networking projects out there. One is Appleseed, which has been in active development since 2004, open source since 2005, and has had four releases in the past 3 months.

For all the attention Diaspora is getting, the other projects will be usable by average users way before they will.
- SingAlong 16y agothere was something called "AroundMe" which was at first the usual walled-garden social network software. But then they changed their philosophy to make it like what Disapora is now. I guess it started sometime in 2005. I edited the older version of their software to setup my own social network. http://www.barnraiser.org/aroundme http://www.barnraiser.org/aroundme Runs on php and mysql. I did checkout AppleSeed longtime back version 0.2 or 0.3 (on savannah i guess). Clean code. Barnraiser's AroundMe has plugin functionality built in. It's not the facebook-type third-party app API. So don't get me wrong.
