AroundMe is a free software solution for those who would like to create a collaborative web space (i.e. MySpace clone).
With this tool you can make your own website and layer in social networking components such as wikis, blogs, and forums. OpenID integration is one of the options that can be extended to the end users as well. AroundMe is released under a GPL license, is free to download, and also features a plug-in API. The hope for the creators of AroundMe is that people will use this tool to create websites for others to network around, forming groups (as with Ning) and offering up user-generated content.
