This post is attracting way too much attention just for the simple reason that so many people are pissed off at the service. I refuse to believe that lack of money is the cause for all this. For all that we know, more than half of funds are being eaten by politicians.

Well.. True that ONE programmer cant scale. But we are not talking here just about scaling. The way the current site works, I doubt if any one with a decent programming experience is working on it. The current site is clearly not user friendly. Takes huge efforts to book a simple ticket and if you havent experienced being logged out constantly now and then, just cos you did some thing wrong, I refuse to believe anyone sane is working on the other side of the website !

Why cant they hire ONE decent programmer who can come up with a good design !!
wonder how the world would be now if someone back in 60's patented looping constructs or programming for that matter. :|
