I remember reading Jerry Pournelle "Chaos Manor" every month, as a 14 year old. English is not my first language and I'm sure reading Byte has taught me a lot of English. Fond memories.

Just recently these names were still available while checking names for a project: feature.io, using.io, edges.io, advan.io, gains.io, plain.io, dest.io and nippy.io. I haven't checked if they were still available as of today so YMMV.

I'm planning to move away from Heroku too, partly because of the routing system issues you mention in your article, but also because I want to sharpen my sysadmin fu. Have you considered https://www.cloud66.com/ because it seems like a ni

The obvious question which comes to mind is? How is Matrix Partners going to get a solid return on this investment? Is (the company behind) Meteor going to follow the Red Hat route? Or are they going to license the platform to developers fo

http://pigeonal.com/ is my attempt at doing this, we've built this app for email that you can deal with in an "out of band" fashion e.g. while waiting in queue. Disclaimer: I'm one of the creators of this app.

Thank you for the kind words, to be honest we're quite confident we'll have to pivot because we feel there's more to be gained from what this version is trying to achieve. We have many more ideas but we're unsure whether they fit inside Pig
