Another Social Network Plugin for WordPress

Ok, let’s go back to my favourite subject – creating your own social network using WordPress. I wrote about Buddy Press – wordpress social network software already. Today I’ve found another plugin for the same purpose. It is called Mingle. Mingle has almost all features that ere necessary for creating nice social network and may be implemented in almost every WordPress theme. This is a bug plus, because Buddy Press can be used only with it’s own theme. So if you want to change design for social network created by using Buddy Press, you have to employ a programmer and pay some extra money. With Mingle you don’t have such problem. However, from my point of view, Mingle is a bit more simple – it does not have all features that are implemented in Buddy Press, plus needs some time to set it up properly (Buddy Press can be installed with one click of the mouse). Anyway, it is worth looking on both of them before choosing the one that suits your needs.
