What is Qvaq?
Qvaq is an easy to use tool for online discussions in real-time. It's a place where users can create and and join groups to discuss various topics with each other. Instead of following people, you follow topics.
You can join and create as many groups as you want to, both public and private ones, and you can chat privately one-on-one with other members.
What features are there?
We try to keep Qvaq as lightweight and easy to use as possible, but there are quite a lot of useful features for those who want to dig deeper.

- Create public or private groups for your favorite topics.
- Use simple or advanced posting, featuring image uplaod etc.
