Known: Social publishing

Hey! Cofounder here. The GitHub link is what many of you will really want: https://github.com/idno/known

it would be great if there was a demo video. I'd love it see it in action, and in particular the major differentiators from other blogging platforms. My first question on reading it all is: can't we do all this with wordpress? I imagine we can't, but I'd love to see a video that shows me so.

I can't figure out what this is or what it does for me.

On your homepage you call it a "social learning platform." The title tag calls it "social publishing for groups and individuals." Further down you say, "you might call it a publishing platform." And Github calls it both a "social publishing platform" and a "social group platform."

Aside from a vague WYSIWYG box in a wireframe, the only thing that seems to tells me what it actually could be used for is the Unified Comments block. That sounds interesting but it isn't clear how it fits into the learning/groups/publishing focus.

I'm curious, how is this different from something like Google Sites? I mean, for a lot of universities, Google Apps for Education is already available. And to create a private community all you need is Google Groups and a Google Site.
