About Us
First, we are in a very early alpha stage, so please excuse our mess. If you find anything wrong, please help us out and submit a bug.
Murmp is a social media site. We've tried to take the best aspects of all of the sites we like, and bring them together into one single place.
For instance, we've spent a lot of time working on the algorithm for comments. We've decided to use a hybrid approach to how comments are moderated. We've incorporated both the limited moderation points style of slashdot as well as the concept of karma. Instead of submitting content to rigid categories, we've employed a tag based system. Also, we allow users to vote/promote on articles like digg but instead of a simple digg/bury approach, you can scale your vote.
What do we have left to do? Well, there are lots of things. Take a look at our feature requests to get a better picture of what all we have on our development plate. However, we always welcome feedback, so if you have an idea for a way for us to improve just let us know and we'll make sure that we find a suitable way to reward your efforts.
One of our main goals is to create a solid community. One where ideas and information are shared and insightful discussion is not only encouraged, but rewarded and promoted. If this sounds like something you'd like to be a part of, then please take a second and sign up. Its quick, easy and free.
