Looks great! It could be very nice with public transportation, so I'll be able to know beforehand which wagons are not overcrowded.

You can imagine everything, you "just" have to find a niche big enough (ex: security, performances, SEO, AWS, varnish specialist...)

Interesting, but you should probably add an example on your landing page.

At the top of the page on the right: Warsaw, Poland

Their business model is probably something like: pay app + a rake.

In their FAQ:

> The minimum bet is 5$ and the minimum reward is 0.5$

> Our users make it on average to 90% of the days they commit

> Software engineering is about striking a balance between choosing an architecture that can grow with your project while being simple enough for you to ship features today. The dogmatic approach from both sides in this ideological war is bizarre.

Exactly and the balance is not an easy thing to do.

YAGNI and KISS principle are often misunderstood and used as a bad excuse to ship crappy code, but used correctly these principles contribute to a good architecture.

Interesting, do you have any example of what you've done in 2012?

Interesting but your page raise too much questions: - What will my page look like? - Is there a quota or something? - What are the possible interaction with the community? - What is the difference with flickr? etc ...
