Great post on a serious subject. BuddyPress can really shine in these kinds of environments. I’d be very interested to hear if there was any integration between BuddyPress and other ITC systems within the school (for example user management) on this particular project?

Ditto with previous comments. I have created a Buddypress network for our school and we are getting really positive comments from parents about how much happier they are that pupils are using our platform rather than Facebook. Also I am using achievements but i think it might be limited. I’m keen to try cubepoints if you think its good. Has anyone tried to use buddpress gift rebirth? it sounds fantastic but i cant quite get it to work.

Thank you Adam. You've inspired us to continue with our own project on a BuddyPress social network in an English Second Language school. We've been using Achievements instead of CubePoints so I'll be interested to compare notes on these plugins.

Hi Adam
Nice post and very useful to me at this moment. I’m currently researching the use of WP+BP as the base for social learning networks for children and teachers. I’d love to share learnings with you. Please contact me at robert@hartfletcher.net.

The power of BuddyPress! There are so many applications and ways it can be used and the integration is so much easier now. I did an article on using it as a corporate intranet.

Times have changed so much that people are comfortable participating in a site that has a social feel like some of these sites they’re used to. Love seeing the articles like this!

There needs to be more coverage of this great news in sites like readwrite, techcrunch, Matts own blog etc

There needs to be email w.r.t this to all schools that such a platform like buddypress exists and is flourishing.

wordpress.com needs to add buddypress layer so that all likes, status ettc can be shared between wordpress users without having to resort to fb etc

BP needs 2 features urgently – BP like button can be added to any site like FB like, and a BP comment system build on or modified from intensedebate that can be plugged into any site

A Games and Apps layer, and a multiple-friend types of friends layer in Buddypress

This is great, on their own domain … any small and large sites can use BuddyPress. It’s theirs for their own community, groups, etc.. (why facebook?! there is better) Thanks to BuddyPress Team.

That’s really really a great news.
But it is so much unattended by media. Just a simple calculation – if this 1 million sites each has some 500 or 600 visitors/users the figure is 500 to 600 million. Considering 1000 vistors/users per 1 buddypress site the number will be 1 billion. Some buddypress sites has much more than 1000 users/vistors, much more really.

So in end-total the figure is much more than facebook!
