Visually, the design is quite appealing... still that old slashcode look-and-feel, but somehow
cleaner-looking. The developer started from scratch with up-to-date technology and has
been able to accomplish a lot very quickly. When I first looked at pipedot a week ago, it was
mostly static... but it now has a functioning submission, reply, and threading system. All it
really needs now is karma and moderation.

If you haven't checked it out yet, you should... it looks promising. It will be interesting to see
if a clean and modern codebase can propel it past SoylentNews.
