Why the condescension? The user's name is clickable and his profile shows he hasn't used the site since March. Instead of being rude, perhaps consider why his experience wasn't sticky.
Head's up: You probably shouldn't have a testimonial from a guy who hasn't used your site in months (Prakash)

My guess is they've all got their heads down trying to hit that deadline.
Mongoengine is pretty tight for python/mongo
One anecdote for another. I'll take it.
Interestingly, I met many people in SF who had signed contracts that disagree with this law.
That is actually a great point. When was this law made?
Also, this only protects people who are aware of it and willing to fight for it
This is garbage. California does this as much as NYC.
I couldn't watch the video on my iPad. They should rethink that.
To me, this behavior solidifies further Google's transition into the Microsoft of the 90's role. I guess that puts them at 2020 for being virtually completely removed from innovation and fully in the role of a differentiation defeater.
Microsoft could turn around and so could Google, but it's very hard when they're so established that short-term risk to profits becomes a major concern.

Tornado, MongoDB and using Emacs to do it.
Aren't you going to be sued, like everyone else that has tried this?

Is that because you haven't tried redis or because you haven't tried mongo?
New Mogul was the first I've seen of this and was the best. I think New Mogul's success was also partly due to the intensity of the financial crisis and people's interest in understanding how it all works. Nickb vanished, unfortunately, and New Mogul eventually fell.
No site has been able to replicate the New Mogul community and I don't believe it's the UI's fault entirely, though New Mogul actually did a good job sprucing up the default look. I believe the intense interest along with communal enthusiasm just doesn't exist in that industry under normal circumstances. And certainly not enough for a shared information / aggregation system to prosper.
Consider the nature of the industry. Knowledge is power. If you're not all in a sinking ship together, why would you give up your competitive edge?
Why ask this question online if you just quit the Internet?!
Think about it. You walk into a video store, you see 8-Minute Abs sittin' there, there's 7-Minute Abs right beside it. Which one are you gonna pick, man?
Your comment just made me realize SQL is the new assembly.
It's going to be a yelp vs. facebook showdown.
I'm only a single data point, but you've lost me because I have no idea what gravity is upon first glance at the site and I don't want to watch a stupid animation of stick figures talking gibberish.
Make it really obvious what your site does or keep making inconsequential first impressions.
Something about Facebook offering an email service strikes me as a new take on Aol.
I agree. $499 is a deal-breaker for me. I will happily wait for Apple's device now.
I'm curious as to what effect Java's crappy tail recursion has I tried running a ruby sudoku solver in jruby that functions basically like an n-queens solver and it couldn't handle it. Not sure I'd expect erjang to do better since the issue is with the jvm.
