No, I get the point. The services are not equal in terms of catalogue depth. They're also not equal in terms of viewing volume.

If I used the DVD plan to fill those gaps, I would be annoyed too. But I don't, I only use streaming. I suspect the majority of users were either overwhelmingly streaming or overwhelmingly DVD oriented. The cost to fill the gaps for those users wasn't adequately covered by the $2, and since they were the minority, they put a wall between the services.

My point was, I still perceive $7.99 unlimited streaming as a great value for the product. Gaps and all.

I also tried both, I was recently promoted into a position where I'm surrounded by developers. They all say both work, but they also all say go Django.

I like Django documentation, I'm a rookie and I'm making progress. Progress is encouraging.

Start with Zed's LearnPythonTheHardWay... then move onto Django.

Rails will get you there, too. My support group is familiar with Django, which is generally the biggest deciding factor.

Soo, I'm going Django and not looking back.

Learn ROR or Django and make some traction. If you ever want to manage start ups you should have an idea of what's under the hood.

I would personally use this over Groupon. Especially if it integrates well with all the current Google services I use. I'm sure Groupon is a bit uneasy about this one.

I'd say yes, but I'm sure the favorable degree to which a recruiter may look upon an employed candidate is less in the tech industry than that of more traditional corporate oriented businesses.

If you're applying to start ups, I doubt they'd care as long as you have the skills necessary.

Is it a web application or just an ecommerce website. If you don't know the difference head over to google.

If it's a web app, find a technical co-founder.. if you can't find one and are dedicated to making something happen, start learning python/django or ruby/rails.

If it's just a website selling things online, you may be fine with a CMS system, look into Magento, Drupal, Joomla, Wordpress etc..

Team up with that new housemate of yours. Make him your CTO, get a prototype up and running.

Pick up a book or do some online tutorials in whatever the prototype is built in... Learn HTML & CSS - very easy to learn.

You're going to have a million more ideas in your lifetime you will regard as amazing and life changing, trust me. Use this one to get your feet wet. Start doing.

The cash flow app's Balance chart doesn't scale well, the numbers on the axis get cut off when adjusting for money in your account.

Same for income vs expense, using the demo on Firefox for mac.

Otherwise these are awesome, great job!

I've fallen into this trap as of late... definitely need to shut up and tinker...

There are so many wavering viewpoints and opinions on topics like Rails vs Django, what to use when, does your framework hinder acquisition possibilities, etc, that you can easily wander off path; Above all else: Play, build, learn.
