* Gamification system using redis,
* Redis as secondary data store along with postgres for faster read/writes,
* Multiple social authentication providers,
* Service objects,
* User invitation system using devise,

* Realtime stuff with Pusher,
* Using jobs to offload heavier stuffs,
* And, many other cool things like commenting and voting.
