    I recently looked into the availability of social tools for popular cms systems and found some promising updates related to some major open source content management systems.

    Drupal - Social Networking Tools Group

    Joomla - Groupjive Social Networking Joomla Component

    Elgg - Open Source Social Platform

    I'd also like to think that there are some developing third party platforms that will plan to support cms systems with API's or even simple profile and community functions that are script / cookie based.
