When 2-3 bright engineers are working on something they very precisely (usually) know what they are doing. If one of them says "It's going to take six to eight weeks" then all the planning would've already happened in the programmer's brain

I really like the guys at slicehost. They can answer all your technical questions in a few short sentences. They are pretty quick and responsive. Hope Rackspace uses these skills along with their servers.

I think Microsoft is offsetting the pain developers face in trying to make web pages work in IE/JScript by promoting jQuery. Without a library like jQuery/Prototype its really difficult to get IE to do what you want. Good news. I really hop

I don't know why some users are saying the design is not good. I found it to be pretty neat and clutter less. It doesn't come in the way.
