You might consider using Pinax. When I used it, it had the self-concept of 'django with an opinion.' I'm not sure where it's at now, but my experience was that it was best suited for exactly what you want to do. One of the base projects is actually a fully functional social network site. You could then customize from there.

these two are different things. Tornado is web server while web.py is a framework. therefore you can use both of them.
