Yea. There are definitely something good going on with Stack Exchange but there is lot's of re-thinking on Moot
- forums can be embedded on our site with just a few lines of HTML and it works out of the box
- because it's a true integration with WebSockets and CORS technologies you have complete CSS and JavaScript control
- Moot includes commenting that is as easy to embed as forums
- The real-time aspect on Moot is not just an "cool add on", but the app is completely real time from top to bottom. All operations happen in place and everyone get's notified instantly.
- "My Feed" or "All posts" are simple concepts but you cannot see them elsewhere. Traditional forums are list of links that point to another list of links and you end up clicking and sufring a lot.
