I tried a lot of social networking scripts. php: social engine(2-4), phpfox(1-2.0.5), elgg, phpizabi, buddyzone, buddypress, joomsocial and so on.. but later I discovered python, django, Pinax and it's beats all of them!! You can easily add thousands django apps in it. And you know, python is really faster than php. I advice you to strat from Pinax! It's really great! Currently I'm using Pinax-0.9a2.dev9 But I added a lot of features, apps + css3 html5 templates. As alternative, you can try to start from django-userena(provides simple registration and profiles and so on) and just add apps which you need.
根据可扩展性，我们使用修改后的 Elgg 为单个盒子中的不同页面提供每秒 150-250 个请求的 HTML 输出页面。我们还没有太多麻烦地对其进行了水平缩放，因此从长远来看它也很好，尽管需要在开箱即用的版本中进行一些调整。
If you're planning to build social network with a lot of specific features, you'll find Elggvery customizable. It also has big plugins base (1,829 OS plugins, not to mention companies specializing in delivering commercial ones) and active community.
I work with Elgg for nearly 3 years now and admire high flexibility of Elgg that allows me to deliver quickly fancy features required by customers. In most cases I focus on implementing actual business logic, not the basic stuff. Also view system is pretty well designed, that allows you to not repeat yourself and quickly build complex-good looking pages.
Also Elgg is very focused (and successful in it!) on making features pluggable, so in natural way it gives you reusability of your code. There's even single plugin that convert's default Elgg install in facebook clone. As you can see, you can do almost everything with just a plugin.
Potential disadvantage of Elgg is that you need to learn it's API, but it's a must if you want to use any existing tool and not to write from scratch.
According to scalablitity, we're using modified Elgg to deliver HTML output pages between 150-250 requests per second for different pages from single box. We also did horizontal scaling of it without much trouble, so it's also good in long run, though need some tweaks to be done in out-of-the-box version.
Oh, and beware of Liferat, er, Liferay, http://www.liferay.com. It's open source and it looks really snazzy, with quick results, but its users have pain.
There are many scripts that can be used for this purposes. First of all, if you are not strong with python I would advise you to chose script written on php as it less demanding to hosting environment and there are many programmers who can handle this task. I have played for a while with ELGG and found it very basic and quite time consuming to produce something useful. It might worth a look on commercial products that have more features out of the box. Here is few of them:

我尝试了很多社交网络脚本。
php：社交引擎(2-4)、phpfox(1-2.0.5)、elgg、phpizabi、buddyzone、buddypress、joomsocial 等..
但后来我发现了 python、django、Pinax，它击败了所有这些！！您可以轻松地在其中添加数千个 django 应用程序。你知道，python 确实比 php 快。
我建议你从 Pinax 开始策略！实在是太棒了！目前我正在使用 Pinax-0.9a2.dev9
但我添加了很多功能，apps + css3 html5 模板。
作为替代方案，您可以尝试从 django-userena（提供简单的注册和配置文件等）开始，然后仅添加您需要的应用程序。

如果您计划构建具有许多特定功能的社交网络，您会发现Elgg非常 可定制。它还拥有庞大的插件库（1,829 个操作系统插件，更不用说专门提供商业插件的公司）和活跃的社区。
我与 Elgg 合作已近 3 年，非常欣赏 Elgg 的高度灵活性，它使我能够快速交付客户所需的精美功能。在大多数情况下，我专注于实现实际的业务逻辑，而不是基本的东西。此外，视图系统设计得非常好，可以让您不必重复自己并快速构建复杂且美观的页面。
此外，Elgg 非常专注于（并且在这方面取得了成功！）使功能可插入，因此它以自然的方式为您提供了代码的可重用性。甚至还有一个插件可以转换 facebook 克隆中默认安装的 Elgg。正如您所看到的，您只需一个插件就可以完成几乎所有事情。
Elgg 的潜在缺点是您需要学习它的 API，但如果您想使用任何现有工具而不是从头开始编写，那么这是必须的。

哦，要小心 Liferat，呃，Liferay，http://www.liferay.com。它是开源的，看起来非常时髦，见效快，但它的用户却很痛苦。

有许多脚本可用于此目的。首先，如果你不擅长Python，我建议你选择用php编写的脚本，因为它对托管环境的要求不高，而且有很多程序员可以处理这个任务。
我已经使用 ELGG 一段时间了，发现制作有用的东西非常基础且相当耗时。
具有更多开箱即用功能的商业产品可能值得一看。以下是其中的一些：
PG 社交网络 (800 美元)
社交引擎 - facebook 克隆 (250 美元)
DZOIC 握手 (250$)
PHP Fox (100$-300$)祝
你好运。
