We have our own KPI dashboard. For Apple: We track track manually and we're also using http://www.appfigures.com/

Happy birthday guys!

I like the coffeesound, where do you get it?

Currently just the iPad and via HTML5 the web. But we're working on an iPhone and Android app too.

w00t 40 servers - 100% node.js? So you've got one of the largest node installations out there, right?

I guess in the end it's all about a companies culture and economically it boils down to "can I sell it". I want to add some random thoughts:

- Probably PHP wasn't your first language, you came from somewhere maybe Perl, maybe Java. There were reasons why you'ved switched. - Is switching so hard? In my experience it is not! Good programmers are good programmers in every language. Get an expert to make your transition as smooth as possible. - You do sell innovation - why not have an elite unit that can be with the new stuff. You can do 80% in your biz with stuff you know.

I'm currently working on a haml parser that supports coffescript. Would be awesome if the template logic would be agnostic.

I get your point. The people I work with who know about "obscure techniques" are sometimes better UX designers than the people who don't know. That is because they actually know the barriers of what's doable in the browser. Living on this edge is not easy as all techniques evolve all the time.

When I talk with people I don't want them to recite these solutions. I want to see if they know their ressources.

@euroclydon oh yes minifying, I gonna add that to the list good point.

For a user experience designer I would have a different interview.

What's important for me is to see if some understand what is happening behind the scenes. There are so many people who apply a clearfix but do not understand the principles of block contexts.
