I don't understand why postgres w/ json enables a website, where sqlite and text files don't. You just ship the sqlite/text file with the rest of the webserver

It's less work than setting up mongo, postgres, or whatever long-running data store. Just deploy the web application... and you're done.

I generally dislike when people try to write off a technology just because they don't know how to use it. Don't hammer in screws, but it doesn't mean you should throw out all of your hammers
