What is the cost of running a social networking website?

I am working on a project to build a social networking web site from scratch using oracle database and an application server like Tomcat. Can any one with prior experience let me know what is the total cost I can expect to incur in execution of this project? Assumption is that this website will be able to support several million users.

Does social networking take the mystery out of life?

I remember the days before facebook, myspace, and twitter. The days when friends went their own separate ways. The days when you could actually miss somebody and wonder what ever happened to them. The days when you could reflect on your past rather than reading your old friend has "a new tattoo". Now with social networking, you will always have access to everybody you’ve ever know at any time. I feel like social networking is the downfall of human relationships and takes away all the mystery of the people from your past

Do you feel this way and please state your age?

What do you look for in the perfect social networking site?

I am building a social networking website and I want to make it better than Facebook (to a certain extent of course, such as the key parts of the social networking site, profile, photos, status, comments, etc.). So I would like to kow what everybody thinks would make the ideal social networking site for you personally.
