When I wrote about turning WordPress MU into a social networking platform a little while back I never could have imagined the amount of interest it would generate.
I’ve heard from a lot of people. Some who are looking to build a new site, some running a site on old software, and others looking for extended WordPress MU functionality. It seems that people liked what they saw with ChickSpeak, and wondered if I would be offering the solution to the public.
BuddyPress is my offering, and although it is not close completion just yet, I wanted to let people into the development process with a dedicated blog.
Head on over and let me know your thoughts.

That’s great! I’ve done something similar (albeit not as sophisticated with WP/bbpress and the multiply plugin for the standard WP branch. Will be following this project closely…

I am impress by your talents, Andy. You are a one man army. BuddyPress is the exact tool that I have been dreaming about for years. I am so excited about the project. Keep up the good work I will spread the word and give my support.

Hello
Just quickly looked at your notes about moving and changing platforms.
You do know that BuddyPress seems to be down?
I am sure it will be resolved and hope for good news on this.
Best wishes.

Hi there,
I’m very interested in your project. I’d help with the coding, but unfortunately, I’m not very keen in this area. I’m a community builder so if you need any help in this area, just let me know.
Are others helping you complete this project?
Thanks for everything you are doing!
