Cool.
i prefer Wordpress:
- is Free as in Freedom
- is Easy to Use and Learn
- is Extendable by Using Themes and Plugins (or doing easy code)
- is Search Engine Friendly ;)
- is Easy To Manage
- is Safe and Secure
- Can Handle Different Media Types
And plus BuddyPress:
Open source with active developers
Free
Interface highly customizable
Many Plugins
Monetization solutions (not only PayPal)
Based on WordPress
Can run on your own server
You own the social graph
No content censorship
Bright future

1. Owning Your Own Data - With sites like Delicio.us in danger of disappearing, owning your own data or that of your own social network becomes quite vital.
2. Secure - BuddyPress is built on WordPress, which is quite secure and teams of people are monitoring and improving it as a regular basis.
3. Quick To Setup - Installing and configuring BuddyPress can happen literally in minutes.
4. Used By Professionals - Check out buddypress.org for sites already using BuddyPress.
*Control your own destiny. Platform solutions are ultimately a dead end when building content and communities, as it is only a matter of time before your success reveals that you are now a "prisoner" in a gilded cage.
