Welcome! This forum is for discussing the practice of programming with
Python.

Your topic doesn't seem much to do with Python (and no, “I'm writing it
in Python” isn't much to do with Python unless your *question* is
specific to Python).

> Personally, I am using Python to build a niche social-network.
