This is the same stack that Drywall is built with. When you're ready to get past a simple hello world app, please take some time to checkout the project.

Care to give elevator pitch for drywall? I checked it out and looks interesting, but wanted to see where you were going with it.

Hey Jason, thanks for taking a look. Right now it's just an open source project of mine, not a business or anything. If something isn't clear after reading the GitHub page, please open an issue or send me an email. I've started breaking out wiki pages from questions I've received. My main focus right now is getting more eyes on the project and gathering feedback.

I have been learning Node, Express, Redis and SocketIO this week-end on CodeSchool. That was really great (fun, quick, interesting)

For those you want to try it, here is a 2 day pass : http://go.codeschool.com/jxYVXA

I'm having a blast with this. Thanks for the pass.

Thanks man, the course is awesome!

Site is down.

guess I need to change my hosting provider... didn't expect so much traffic...

Godaddy.com :)

I understand why your site is down :)

Hah... it was actually Westhost - don't know why I'm still using them. Called them and seems like I hit the limit on simultaneous clients allowed.. :/

Now begins the search for better blog hosting... any ideas?

github pages + jekyll should work nicely for you

thanks - didn't know that was possible. upgrading now.

It isn't all GoDaddy. I have no affiliation with GoDaddy. I don't use them anymore myself.

WestHost or otherwise, WordPress sites, bar none, need a caching plugin.

temporary google cache version of the site: http://webcache.googleusercontent.com/search?q=cache:http://...

welcome to HN effect :)

lesson learnt for sure...
