Nice story... I think it was a smart move to target tech communities. I was on your homepage. Looks like you guys also link the chat on web with irc chat. These two should play well together.

Building your business on top of someone else’s platform seems like a risky thing to do. But then again, everyone’s basically building apps for walled gardens nowadays.

amalantony: are you a part of the team? It is brave of the team to have opensourced the entire code-base under AGPL. Success to you guys.
