Module development and code questions

I'm trying to create a multistep form with 4 steps. I've taken the example code from the Pro Drupal book and added code to preserve the fields between steps. Below, I preserve step 3 in hidden fields any time the current step is greater than 3.

Is there any type of module that alows for user personal pages? Like Xanga, Facebook, or Myspace? I've been looking and have not found one yet.

I am working on my localhost/Mac osx with MAMP. What can be the problem?

I've generally had great success with Drupal 5.1 and am very happy with my site. Except for the ping module.

I'm not sure it works at all. I have a blog and two podcasts on my site, but I post them using "story" and "audio" content types. The core ping module doesn't seem to ping at all, which is a problem.
