My PHP is rusty, but I'm not letting that stop me. I've got a project my business is undertaking for our local area: The project can be seen as a simplified linkedin, with the ability for users to register a company page, which will allocate a subdomain via cpanel. The company page will act as an independent webpage, with customizable theming and blocks/widgets and a simple blogging tool, much like that of a facebook status. Registering a company page will have a monthly fee. The idea being, that these businesses are all too broke and cheap to pay for their own website, so we will provide this service to give them a space on the web. People can register for free, update their profile, CV, references etc, post classified ads, organize events and a few other features. So, my question is, although I've been coding PHP for 6 years, what would a good starting point be as to which framework I could utilize for a fairly rapid deployment of this idea?

Hey all, my name is Jethro and I need to more often. I am a Web Designer and Developer based in South Africa. I first verntured into the realm of programming at age 12, but it was only during 2004 that I discovered my true passion; web development and design. Since then I have worked as a freelancer, mostly doing script modifications.... ugh! Now at 20, I'm starting a business with my brother and friend. We've got some good ideas of how to leech money out of the pathetic town we live in, where internet = facebook. A good place to refine and test our skills before going on to bigger things. I've wasted some time in my life with pot, so my PHP is rusty and I'm behind most trends. I'm clean now and ready to code until CTS takes over, thus resulting in my suicide.
