Thanks

Celery is used for sending emails.

Celery could be useful if you have a lot of users subscribed to notifications and for sites with medium or high traffic.

If your site is small you can live well without it. :-)

More specifically - celery sends instant notifications about changes in the posts asynchronously, so that the user who made the post/edit would not have to wait to see the result until all the messages are sent out. In the future we might use celery for other potentially time consuming tasks.
