BuddyPress is built to bring people together. It works well to enable people with similar interests to connect and communicate. Some of the fantastic uses might be: * A campus wide social network for your university, school or college. * An internal communication tool for your company. * A niche social network for your interest topic. * A focused social network for your new product.
