My Personal Views about Open Source Social Network

I have seen so many Free Social Networking Site Scripts which claims to provide all features of Facebook. Out of all, I recommend you to use Open Source Social Network because it’s interface and other features looks similar to Facebook.  Like Facebook, this platform also provide you best features like Real time activity notifications, news feed, instant chat,Photo, Video sharing,Blogs, forums, wiki, Groups, events, friends, Comment, tag, rate any kind of content, Privacy and profile customization,Collaboration, file sharing, video-conference tools and much more.
If you want to Create your own site like Facebook, just follow this tutorial. As I informed you earlier, it doesn’t require any coding skills. The installation merely takes 2 minutes. It means, You can create your own Social Networking site like Facebook without having any programming knowledge and that too in 2 minutes for free. Just Give it a try and come back to comment.
