This application(linkedKnowledge) is mostly like a forum, though we called it as “a knowledge based social networking”. Basically, the application LinkedKnowledge is a tool for people as a discussion board to exchange knowledge. Therefore, someone can create a Topic and then can be items added as many wants. Discussions happen under the items generally e.g. If IT (Information Technology) is a Topic and then VAADIN is an item there to discuss. So, any kind of area can be discussed between knowledgeable and interested people who wants to exchange view and learn.
However, this application enable people to be connected through exchanging knowledge, so, that's the idea and justification of this application naming, specifications and features.
