I have considered a similar idea, though mine was more of a
recommendations/search engine than a social network: eg. if you are
looking in category "Relational Databases" for something that works
with Django and Ubuntu then top of the list should be Postgres, with
links to the project website, ohloh and a small wiki attached for
people to discuss their experiences with the combination. My idea also
included anonymity by default for both stack submitters and users, but
with optional identity. As with all these things, there's a
chicken-and-egg problem of being useless until the network is big
enough to tell you what you don't already know.

There's a another take on the basic idea here

http://www.appliedstacks.com/

and these guys have resorted to spidering to get their dataset (less
than 700 manual submissions).
