It's great for Bitcoin buyers & sellers because the panel is consolidated around the more popular exchanges & wallets, its cleaner & easier to read than most financial-type sites, & all the data is real-time. Also, I'm working on supplemental features such as a live balance & calculator page to help make more informed decisions without having to navigate to other pages.

It's cool to me simply because its a site I myself want & need and mostly, its an excuse to play with technologies I've always wanted to learn & use so I'm glad I finally took the time to do so.

i.e -Django as webapp front-end with Gunicorn & nginx in the mix, -Gearman as a background worker pulling data and storing it in a DB, -nodejs + socket.io pushing the DB data to Django, -supervisord controlling Gunicorn & Gearman processes

And all of these living in their own VM environment for load/performance & decoupling of the usual silo of services.

Ping me if you're interested in finding out more about it :)
