I'm slightly envious that you are working on a Clojure project with PostegrSQL, especially involving all the bells and whistles. Got any PostGIS or otherwise geospatial data, on top of all that? :)

Well, it is my own project, so I got to choose the technologies :) It is a lot of fun working on it. The data does have location information, but I'm not sure if I'll use PostGIS for it, as it would be a bit of taking a sledgehammer to crack a nut. The location information is rather sparse.

Most people who think they need postgis just need earthdistance. Try it.
