I understand your argument that "it makes everyone aware that changes in economic policy are needed. ", however isn't the Euro basically a straightjacket preventing each individual country from setting its own monetary policy? For example,

In many parts of the world (and USA) it's considered pretty disrespectful to take a phone call while seated at a restaurant. Now 'furiously coding' at the restaurant (not a coffee shop) -- that I've never seen before, and I've lived in SF f

Why is it surprising? America can't go against every one who doesn't agree with them. It needs to weigh its options carefully and intelligently. The mere reason that Hugo Chavez is still in power testifies to this fact. The world is not

Yep, I live here too (and not in Williamsburg but closer to Brighton Beach). Brooklyn is hustler's paradise. Some people I know do stuff online that will make this guy look like an amateur.

It's a good contrarian point, but why downvote? He's not trolling but just stating some good points. Take a look at the list of sites closed. Last time I checked I don't remember that selling unauthorized content is legal. louis-vuit

Some companies are making a killing by selling those X-Ray machines to the gov't. The politicians who pushed this are getting a nice cut from this. There's startup for you.

I'm a little bit confused about the number of arguments against the OP's post, here and especially on his own site. As someone who's considering whether going w/GAE or custom, the points he makes are totally valid and applicable.

"and finish with a little-known traffic tip I’ve never told anyone before" Nice post. I wonder if replacing "tip" with "secret" would improve blog signup conversions. Also, please add email subscription so I can get emails of new posts.

I have never met anyone who was not technical and then became a coder. In pre-2000 dot.com you could've gotten a job with a word 'Internet' on your resume, but nowadays you should at least know decent coding.

Just adding $0.02 of my own about your site. I went there really quick but took a while to figure out what you were selling. I'd simplify the design and add a headline somewhere about what the site does. It's just too busy.
