Hi, I wanna know wich of the well known frameworks is the best choice  
for myspace-clone community website.

CakePHP ? Zend Framework? Symfony?

Ruby on Rails 🙂 ?

Django?

or maybe  
Kohana? Prado? or something else?

Is it better to use PHP or Ruby or Python? I will pay a webdesigner  
for this job, but I want to know which lang and framework is in your  
opinion the best for this kind of application.  
I expect about 10 000 or more unique visitors each day so I want to  
know words from You, the professionals.

It is VERY important that the user can change the CSS, like on  
[myspace.com](http://myspace.com).

## Then I want to know if is it better to provide for users profile page this URL /I have 4 letters in my domain name./

username.\*\*\*\*.com

or

\*\*\*\*.com/username

thanks in advance
