Bet the farm. Python or PHP?
iamdave: >calendar/scheduling/notifications with some social networkingWhy?More and more web apps are coming out with social networking tied in, and very few of them succeed BECAUSE they have social networking tied in.  Socializing a site is a bit more than giving people profile pages and enabling them the ability to "friend" people, at least that's how I look at it.So my question to you is this: how are you planning to make the social aspect of your site actually work?  How are you going to make the ad hoc benefits of social networking replicate to an online presence?  Will people actually benefit from socializing, or are they just going to have friends who they will have the extraneous ability to leave comments about?
