Pump.io (pronounced "pump eye-oh") is a general-purpose activity streams engine that can be used as a federated social networking protocol which "does most of what people really want from a social network".[4][1] Started by Evan Prodromou, it is a follow-up to StatusNet;[5] Identi.ca, which was the largest StatusNet service, switched to pump.io in June 2013.[6]

As a distributed social network, Pump.io is not tied to a single site. Users across servers can subscribe to each other, and if one or more individual nodes go offline the rest of the network remains intact.
