How-to leverage WordPress for creating Extended Social Profiles

You can accomplish that with:

  • a regular instal of WordPress but
    with a lot of work and hacking around
    to get it where you want.

  • a multisite install of WordPress that
    would make it a bit easier but still
    a lot of work and customization.

  • a fairly easy case with BuddyPress.

    Basically it just installing BuddyPress ,some plugins and configuring it a bit not only the profiles but also the mini-blogs,multitude of taxonomies,images and e-commerce products specific to the person. its just for that.

So I’d say your best of with BuddyPress, and why not?
