It depends. If you are going to have at least some content shared, then:

- OG on a single site
- or http://drupal.org/project/domain module, which is essentially an
access control module which allows access based on the subddomain.This
may require a core patch or not, if you want to use additional access
control modules such as OG,

If you are going to have completely separate content, then

- subsites with different content tables
- or http://drupal.org/project/subdomain module together with
pathauto, and your (completely separate) sub-sites can be based on
something like taxonomy or OG. This module requires some core patches.
