I've looked at lots of the social networking scripts. Most of the scripts are too buggy for my taste and support is poor. I decided, for the time being to go with a white label of Corank (for a Digg-like script). So far my experiences have been positive. It is still to early to say for sure. I am only getting about 700 visitors a day (it has been up for a few days at LINKS), and really hasn't been stress. But I am hopeful. The platform is reliable and support is decent - though sometimes it takes a while to get a question answered. They really need a forum.

As a result of this positive experience, I am going to try out KickApps. These hosted forums are the quickest way to get a reliable social network up and running, but they do have the big disadvantage that the host owns the data. I am using CNAME to get a decent url (links.links.com) to reflect my own domain, Links.com.

We'll see what happens over time. I would appreciate any feedback from anyone else who is working on building similar sites.

Cya,
Rich
