"The NoSQL movement is an alteration from traditional relational databases, to building databases that can handle larger scale demands, but sacrifice reliability." Sacrifice reliability? This isn't correct at all.

For rails, Sass ( http://sass-lang.com/ ) has a nice setting for doing this: Sass::Plugin.options = { :style => :compressed }

Not sure why anyone would use this -- it looks about one step away from using HAML directly ...

Neat and all, but why is this written in JS? CSS selector support is great in html parsers (nokogiri, for instance.) Seems like a hassle to add the script tag, onload, etc. just for a run-once-and-only-in-dev kind of script.

It depends on your demographic. I use Amazon FPS: - because my customers will probably have an amazon account w/ CC info in it, and will probably not have a paypal account. - to avoid having to deal with storing CC info on my end. - to avoi

The site looks nice. Logo, however, could use some work. I also wonder about speed. Having the developer connect to you guys, which in turn connects to us, just seems like it would be super slow. And API's are generally all about speeeed.

Calling my customers? I usually hang up right away for these spam calls... it doesn't seem like the best idea to annoy my customers with any calls like this.

You provide the connection to twitter/facebook, but users really won't do that until they want to -- until they have a reason to. Let them save something or create something on your site, interact with it somehow, and then to have it the sa

Typography on the homepage could be better... large font Arial just doesn't look good. Too many obvious photoshop bevels, especially on this page: http://www.redanyway.com/register.php All of the pages look different from each other. You

Not sure, but I know you can click "Can't Tell" aside rating them 1-5 which might equal a rating of zero.

Hmm, for my site it seems to cut off at right around the 3000th line of source. Should I be worried about this? Is this a bug in the "Fetch as Google" feature or perhaps googlebot cuts off after the 3000th line...?

Yeah, really depends on your application. ActiveScaffold is really for admin-side straight to the DB stuff. We use it for our admin interface and it works great up until you want something more than basic CRUD. Hobo looks a little like rail

Yep, I agree. 90% of these hacks really aren't necessary at all. Another thing to consider is that your site doesn't need to look 100% the same across all browsers -- allow room for leeway, and you won't be pulling your hair out nearly as m
