Just curious, how do you collect the hours from the businesses you are displaying? Do you use an API to consume this data, or is it manually entered? I bet an algorithm could be built (assuming enough data is flowing) where it automaticall

Verizon has been promising this for quite a while now. From what I've heard, the third and highest tier of FiOS can only get up to 50mbps (if you're lucky). http://www.newnetworks.com/tellthetruthverizon.htm "We estimate that nationwide,

this design actually makes more sense in my mind. i used the old site mostly to replay my favorites until i got tired of them. i think they want you to take that behavior off the site and onto your mobile devices (so download or buy the son

i think the new site is about discovery. if you like the music, stick it on your iphone or listen to it in itunes--it probably consumes a lot of bandwidth to constantly replay the same music. use the site to find new music. that's just m

i thought my saved songs were gone too. they're not, they're just in "history." and if you use your keyboard to tap next, it should persist on that window and not switch album covers. at least it was for me.

EC2 isn't bad. Under Rails, I use Rio to store a lot of remotely fetched images (it's one line to fetch a remote image in Rio), HTTParty to handle some JSONP, and EC2 bandwidth is free when using Heroku. Nice setup, the only disadvantage

i was paying $350/month when i was there because i lived in a room with 2 other guys. it wasn't too bad for our group because everyone had day jobs, so we had the place to ourself for most of the time.
