  Description     : Event-based I/O for V8 javascript

 Node aims at providing a basis for server-side javascript.
 .
 It is similar in design to and influenced by systems like
 Ruby's Event Machine or Python's Twisted.
 .
 Node takes the event model a bit further—it presents the event
 loop as a language construct instead of as a library.
