socialnetworking

Hi all,

I'm totally new to Drupal so I'm still exploring the various modules to see what's available that'll suit my needs.

I need to quickly set up a social network to connect a bunch of people all around the globe. Basically, I need a mix of Ning and Facebook, with the ability to sort people by the info they've entered (location, industry, etc). The reason those two systems won't work is that I don't want there to be a default language...so I have another idea.

There was a previous attempt at integrating OpenSocial into Drupal. My hope is this one will be more successful.

As it stands now the RESTful API aren't ready for but there's plenty of documentation to get an early start. I am planning on jump starting the server-based part of this project by evaluating the existing REST API.
