We don't use iCloud for syncing, all the lists, nouns, broadcasts, and so on, are server-backed. The backend is primarily built on Rails server. Some services that run periodically are written in Go.
There are a lot of different use cases mentioned on the homepage. Which ones are the most prevalent by beta users?
I realize that this second question may be driven by the answer to the first, but are there plans to integrate with any existing list-making services (foursquare, evernote, etc.)?
I would say it's actually in the order that it is on the site.
Making lists were the top thing that everyone did, far and away, for personal use and for public display. Others liked having a central place to send recommendations from, for movies, restaurants, books, TV shows, podcasts, and more. The activity feed and broadcasts seem to be good when you have a lot of followers (as some early adopters did), so we expect that to grow over time.
