Insoshi social networking platform
Insoshi is a product and a project. The product aims to be the best open-source social networking platform. The project is to make the product!
Since Insoshi is open source, you can download the code from our GitHub repository and make your own social network. If you'd like to kick the tires of the Insoshi application, check out the Insoshi demo site. Then stay in touch by joining the Insoshi developer site—which is powered by Insoshi!
