10+ Communities and Social Networks Powered by Elgg

by on February 5, 2009

This post is a list of communities and social networks powered by Elgg, I decided to collect all what I think is interesting community or an nice design for a theme, and publish all that on one post for references, I thought share with you. so if you have any other websites, plz post a comment telling me about it, I would appreciate that. 

On the list you will find some communities that approve the theme development in Elgg is growing, but unemotionally almost all of theses  themes are a custom designs which are made specially, so you will not find them in the community theme downloads, and no one will share it with you. probably theme develpment are poor in the Elgg community but there is enough templates to start developing your own.
