  1. Joomla is designed precisely for social network communities and e-commerce! Used ‘as is’ Joomla runs (without plugins) a community (ie multi user) magazine/blog-style website.
    You then feed in the articles to read, items to sell, etc. You as administrator control who has access and who can create articles / items.
    You can create and edit the templates as you wish and install plugins to enhance your site. They are just text files, editable with Notepad (Google “Notepad+” for an enhanced version, better for editing website files).
    A great site for ‘empty’ basic templates is Compass Designs:http://www.compassdesigns.net
    and for tutorials:http://www.compassdesigns.net/tutorials/…

    Good luck!
