    I know it's a controversial question but why do you prefer Clojure over Scala?

    I took a really short look at the source and it seems like the only MySQL specific feature is UUID generation (which can be ported to PostgreSQL in no time)

    I'm not familiar with JSP, but this ( http://github.com/nysenatecio/Newsclips/blob/ba592845111abd8... ) looks like someone let too much logic creep in their view. Also interesting: http://github.com/nysenatecio/Newsclips/blob/ba592845111ab

    There's http://gitcasts.com/posts/railsconf-git-talk It helped me to actually get git (incidentally that's also the talk's title). Don't let the "rails" in the URL mislead you, it's mostly about git and you can easily skip the part about
