OSSN

OSSN lets you create a social networking website where members build social relationships with people who share professional or personal interests. It is for people who want to run an online community based on common work or personal interests, and for members who want to connect with others around those interests. The program focuses on two linked tasks: creating the social networking website and helping its members form relationships. That focus is also its main limitation: OSSN is suited to sites built around shared interests and is less relevant when social networking is not the site's main goal. A shared professional interest, a shared personal interest, or both, can provide the basis for each member connection on the resulting website.
