Node.js Frameworks Comparison

I updated the blog to sound less "meh" about Geddy, telling people to give it a whirl - hope I didn't offend. It's been a while since I looked at Geddy, but I remember thinking of it as a direct competitor (and incompatible) to Express, with additional MVC components. I've always taken Express & Connect to be pretty standard at this point, and which have their own universe of middleware modules such as EveryAuth & Passport. The reason I didn't choose Geddy is I'd lose out on these goodies.

Meteor takes a similar, and more extreme approach - you can't use NPM at all, much less Express - which precludes a lot of modules. Quite unattractive to many, but because it takes care of every bit of your app - a complete end-to-end framework - people get over it.

Anyway, Geddy is a seasoned framework which has been around for a while, with titan developers & great architecture - I don't mean to poo-poo it by any means.
