Thanks for that list. I guess I haven't run into any of these more "complex" issues yet developing the relatively low scale sites I've been working on. Hopefully some day, the Django ORM would become too much of a time sink for me to consid

Is it just me, or does this seem a lot like what boxee does? Perhaps Google, with it's brand name will be finally able to push the web+tv concept into the mainstream.

I've been using the Google Chart Tools ( http://code.google.com/apis/charttools/index.html ) and have been pretty happy with it. Haven't used it on a major project though, so your mileage may vary.

I've recently started doing some investing (in both stocks and MF's) - in the Indian market. Over a 3 month period, I've had higher returns on my Growth MF's than on all the stocks I've bought. I'm slowly starting to pull out of stocks and

To be fair, there are a few options out there (see http://www.pluggd.in/review-of-payment-gateways-in-india-297... ) but from the quick research I did, they have really high transaction rates (upwards of 6%). If no better options exist, th

Can someone explain why Protocol Buffers ( http://code.google.com/apis/protocolbuffers/ ) is not being used more widely?? It it 'cause of the limited language support (Java/C++/Python only) or some other reason??
