Looks like they are using Ruby/Rails and MongoDB.

#3I'm impressed and surprised that they have released code. I worried that the initial flurry of money and hype would derail them.
Many projects never get this far, and for this, they deserve to be commended. They've built something and dealt with a lot of external pressure at the same time.

#4It looks surprisingly advanced, from a screenshot perspective - more than I admit I would have given them credit for.
Is there additional insight into what "aspects" are, though? It confuses me - will it confuse an ordinary user?

#6For some reason I thought that development was being done in php.
Other than that I'm somewhat dismayed that their open source release isn't actually running on some site and says run at your own risk due to security issues. Edit: (Looks like there is a demo in the comments here but not open to sign up)
Hopefully development continues quick enough that it escapes into the public before the tech hype is gone.

#7I don't want to be that guy, but this looks a lot like Virb from a few years ago (http://static.arstechnica.com/VirbActivity.jpg).
Good on them though for releasing! This looks like a solid effort. I wish them the best. :-)

Haha, I like that the last commit on most of those files are "Spell our own name right."
