"All of Apps probably takes up less than 1% of Google's data centers, which have a million-plus servers." a million servers - anyone know if this is accurate or hype/guesswork? I've heard from a couple of facebook guys that they have 50k+ s

Ditto, every time I get stuck and hit the django IRC channel I'm amazed how friendly and helpful the devs are. I don't think I've ever left there without learning something.

Ha sorry I didn't realize who I was talking to, yeah if you built mozy then mogile would probably hit the wall fairly early :) I work for one of the larger Japanese web companies, and the CEO has basically declared war on amazon japan (lite

We're running about 90 terabytes of mogile storage containing 20-30 million files and haven't had any problems at all. If we do, the plan is to shard them along the same lines as our database sharding. I don't know of any other products apa

If you could get a list of IP addresses somehow, it would be handy to direct users straight to posts about their particular university (assuming they're accessing from on-campus). I couldn't see the university list on the iPhone - you might

I was really impressed with fluxiom.com (media management app, from the scriptaculous guy I seem to recall) when I first saw it, although I haven't looked at it for a year or two. Beautiful design and lots of attention to detail. The flickr

I forget the name of the book (maybe 'stasiland'?) given to me by a German coworker but the level of surveillance the east Germans lived under sounds incredible.

Great idea! This is just a random thought, but I wonder if there's some way you could incorporate the google sets API that was posted recently to get 'related' articles from the search terms if you don't get any results initially.
