Enterprise 2.0: Sun’s Project SocialSite

One of the entries in the launchpad competition today was Sun Microsystem’s Project SocialSite.

This could be a compelling option for those looking to run their own open social containers. It isn’t available in source code form yet, but you can sign up here to be notified when it is available.
