What is the best social networking script?

[Johnn]

I plan to develop a couple of sites and wonder which one is the best!

phpFOX : http://phpfox.com

Handshakes : http://dzoic.com

PHPizabi : http://www.phpizabi.net/

Elgg: http://elgg.org/

Others?

Pros & Cons

Please share your experience.

Thanks,
John

no test drive yet but ning.com looks good

It is hosted solution and they run their ads on the site then they charge for every feature.

I prefer to buy the script.

Thanks,

Have you seen Socialengine.net - we are looking into using this one...it is very powerful, but with all the add on's...kind of expensive.

They sell the skeleton and charge for every plug in.

I used phpfox for a while, had no problems with it and enjoyed all the features. Only reason I stopped using it was the activity never was really there and not making enough money and the costs kept increasing so gave up. Kind of regret it because I did like having a social platform at my control...

if you are developer and create scripts and stuff , elgg is very good to go , i support opensource scripts and elgg won the best social networking script award for 2008
