Wanting to build a MySpace type website

[Absolutely]

But I'm clueless on software. If asking for software suggestions is not allowed here, how about pointing me towards some forums where I can ask?

I can't even find THAT.

By the way, what's that type of software called? Am I looking for community based software, or?

Thanks :)

Social Networking Software is what you are looking for. There are a few examples of open source applications that may be what you are looking for. Try a Google search :)

There is also this page on Wikipedia...
