Well there are 2 questions here really, one of which i can answer and  
the other one is hard for me to judge :)

Can you become an open social, social network site? Yes! This is what  
Apache Shindig is for: http://incubator.apache.org/shindig/
It is an open source (production ready) open social server reference  
implementation.

Can you make a social network site that has the unique features of  
myspace, facebook, orkut and hi5? Well i have no idea if you can .. if  
you have the time and capacity i don't see why not though? :) The Open  
Social server part of it is already made for you, but all the rest  
(the actual site) you'd have to make your self :)
