HN is already a "social" network, albeit with a limited set of features. But that "limitation" is what makes the site so engaging (a strong set of moderation rules also help of course). I'm building "Create your very own HN site yourself" - (https://hn.plus https://hn.plus) if anyone is interested - I guess you will be able to follow the HN model yourself with it.
