  Woa mama! Sorry guys, site-owner here - wasn't prepared for HN. Trying to get it back up. Anyway, the conclusion - in order: Derby, Meteor, SocketStream, Express, Tower. Express was less in the ordered list and more an "if you don't want the full-fledged framework"

    I'm curious what you thought was lacking for Geddy (I'm a contributor). We'd definitely like some input.

      I updated the blog to sound less "meh" about Geddy, telling people to give it a whirl - hope I didn't offend. It's been a while since I looked at Geddy, but I remember thinking of it as a direct competitor (and incompatible) to Express, with additional MVC components. I've always taken Express & Connect to be pretty standard at this point, and which have their own universe of middleware modules such as EveryAuth & Passport. The reason I didn't choose Geddy is I'd lose out on these goodies. Meteor takes a similar, and more extreme approach - you can't use NPM at all, much less Express - which precludes a lot of modules. Quite unattractive to many, but because it takes care of every bit of your app - a complete end-to-end framework - people get over it. Anyway, Geddy is a seasoned framework which has been around for a while, with titan developers & great architecture - I don't mean to poo-poo it by any means.
