Hello Hassan,

good question. I found 4 ways when I tried:
1. EngineY - Seems exactly for this goal but I dunno much.
2. LovdByLess - it's fancy but not upgraded yet. You might wanna
upgrade it yourself )I tried, writing a new one is easier for sure).
3. Insoshi https://github.com/gezope/insoshi
4. Your own social network. I must say this is still the best idea.
Good practise and you can have controll all the time.

It doesn't mean you need to develop the whole app yourself. You might
wanna use many gems like authlogic or devise or omniauth for
authentication (check Railscasts for more info), etc.

There's 2 CMS which I can suggest too: RefineryCMS and LocomotiveCMS.
Refinery has great community and there's lots of features already
done. Really easy to extend.

I would definitely use Refinery for a social network with my own code.

Good luck,
Zoli
