I'm basically creating a brand new website, that will function differently from most cyber nations, it will be the most up to date micronation in the world!!! It will include a social network with a citizens area that will have a collaboration of facebook, myspace, google, youtube, twitter, flickr etc. in one.

A mix of my own code, and lots of different software, including elgg. But should hopefully come out different from the conventional social network, but need to brainstorm or what ever we are meant to call it nowadays!

ah right sounds good lol and alot of hard work lol lol i was told a few years ago in school its called mind maping because brainstorming takes the mick out of people who have fits lol though no one i know who has fits takes offence to it lol ah well have you ever seen the site eRepublic, google and its in the top i think, they have some good features a micronation could use, i have been looking at different social networking scripts, not for micronations, and came across one called Dolphin, its got some good features though i think elgg has the same ones really its just Dolphin has some more community ones i think.

@ Damien - Yes, i have seen that eRepublik its a role playing game, which we don't really want to get into, although we could possibly add as a feature to bobalania.com eventually, a Bobalania themed one i mean. All news closer to the time of the new Bobalania will be posted here, and hopefully i'll try to get people across the world blogging about it and create a bit of a buzz! Yes, i have seen Dolphin, i have it installed on the bobalania.com website, i was going to use this, but many reviews said it was bad and it is not actually true open source software as patron pointed out with there adds on. Elgg allows much more flexibility and anything ias possible with this software it is fully customizable, has better support, and it is true open source, it has also been reviewed as the best script out there. I'm planning on making it pretty different from the initial software you download, over time and changing a lot of the configurations. Haven't been able to start seriously working on it though at the moment, but I will be able to hopefully soon. If anyone has ideas for things they would like on the new site or anything they think would work well then please post them on here or e-mail me.

I plan, once the new site is live, to involve the whole Bobalanian community in adding new things and improving it continuously, the hard work is getting people to know about us!

yea true about dolphin, i have used elgg in the pased and is quite good to configure once you get into it, as you say anything is possible with it. yea although i do like some of erepublics fetures, the whole jobs and life bar is good at getting people to keep coming back to the site, could be used in a micronation maby, lol though the rest is not realy useble

Yes, this is the sort of thing i am thinking about creating for the new site, although it may require some customisation. At the moment, its just thinking about how im going to organise the site, how it will work, features and design etc.

yea, i think for the best result at the moment a clean and simple design would be best, work on the functions then go for design lol i was wondering do you know much about changing the design of elgg sites like adding pictures and colors ect.?

lol thats k, yea i know what you meen i have been struggling to find time for stuff as well lol
a little bit, mostly just simply installing a free site template as a plugin and then modifying the plugin from there, it seems to get the job done and is easier than starting from scratch.
