better yet…why not? ;-)

Sure - I’m going to try to write up a more detailed post on this down the road…but the short answer is that it’s mainly just a Python Tornado project with Whoosh and Mongo handling many of the background details.  I use Twitter’s bootstrap styles and Jquery mobile for the two display versions…beyond that it’s just a bunch of cronjobs and Python scripts to manage what gets indexed when and how.

heh - not at all…I often forget what ones I even own (which is a good thing because otherwise I get frustrated not making progress on half the interesting things I want to build).

I have a stack of notebooks near my desk where I often jot down to-do items for each of these…in reality, very little progress is made on any of them…I build them in spurts.

If you want it for something interesting…very cheap. Email me at info at falicon.com

Absolutely - I advise a lot of startups informally already, and my actual paying gig is as a founding member of a startup (pubgears)…I guess I’m just addicted to the challenge and fun of building something from nothing.
