If your into PHP at all you could check out partuza:

Source code: http://code.google.com/p/partuza
Live demo: http://www.partuza.nl
How to setup under windows: 
http://www.chabotc.com/generic/setting-up-shindig-and-partuza-on-windows/
I'm was assuming people with linux knowledge would be able to manage  
through: http://code.google.com/p/partuza/wiki/SettingUpShindigAndPartuza

It shows how to use shindig and create a simple social network site  
around it.

Hope that helps a bit
