Elgg is a social networking framework. It provides the necessary functionality to allow you to run your own social networking site, whether publicly (like Facebook) or internally on a networked intranet (like Microsoft Sharepoint).
To run Elgg, you need to have your own web server and a certain amount of technical knowledge - or access to someone who does, like a system administrator

Is Elgg Free?
Elgg is an open source product. Not all open source products are free to download, but Elgg is. That means, in its simplest form, Elgg costs nothing at all. This does not mean it’s public domain: Elgg is released under the GNU Public License v2, which means the source code is licensed to you. With any software, it’s always a good idea to read the license.
What Does Elgg mean
No, in all seriousness, Elgg doesn’t stand for anything. It’s named after a town in Switzerland. However, if you prefer this answer, it also means “moose” in many languages.
