good article! I agree with the last comment "node is great for javascript lovers", which I think says it all. Until now with node, how many js developers had to worry about concurrency or scalability? The fact is node allows the (originally js) developer to do everything he wants in one language, both on the server and browser side. And it works for most sites. If I get 1,000,000 visitors per month, and assume only 16 hrs a day of real activity, that gives me 1,000,000 / 30 / 16 / 60 / 60 = 0.58 request per second. Which is still easy enough for node to handle. I've been programming with Node a lot lately and find it easy since I can use my networking programming knowledge from C in another language I also know well i.e. javascript, but Go might be on the todo list of things to check out next.
