EsoTalk

esoTalk is a light-weight Internet forum package written in the PHP scripting language. Available under the GNU General Public License, esoTalk is a free software. It is designed to be simple, fast, and fully featured.
Features
Being a simple and fast Internet forum package, esoTalk only includes major functions for discussion. Unlike other Internet forums, an esoTalk forum only includes one board and no category, and the only board is also the main page. It uses tags to categorize everything such as private conversations and drafts.
Based on Ajax, an esoTalk forum automatically updates while someone replying, and people can easily switch to what they want to read by scrolling the blue bar. It is convenient to add and remove skins and plugins, change a member's status, and “star” conversations by one-clicking on an esoTalk forum.
The package of self-made esoTalk emoticons is also released on Wikimedia Commons.
History
