I bet in a couple years time there will be some kick ass social networking platforms, plug-ins, and themes available for the non-programmer. I am surprised by this lag time.

Paired with some other Open Source and commercial extensions for Joomla it can be very powerful. It's fairly easy to manage but I wouldn't suggest for a newbie to build their own site. Ning is phasing out their free service (expect a dramatic drop of their user base) so it's no longer a choice for free social sites but it's a pretty good choice for low cost. I have also tried some stand alone scripts and the old Community Builder for Joomla. Some are old (CB) but still valid for some uses. Some are just too clunky and support is minimal. If I had to build my own right now I'd use Jomsocial. The price is right, not to difficult to implement (takes me an afternoon to build a site, but I had a steep learning curve - some of the features need to be tweaked a bit to work) and it's very powerful.
