Hi Django developers, So for those of you that I haven't met or corresponded with, I'm the founder of Tabblo, a relatively young website for telling stories with photos, words, and highly stylized templates via a 100% web-based interface that is usable by normal humans. We've been using Django since day 1 of Tabblo and have been really happy about how much help its been.
Frankly, despite having been the guy who picked it, I had originally thought that building a massively scalable site on Django was going to be a non-starter after we got past the initial phase and was just happy to start it for prototyping due to the niceties the URL mapper and the ORM provided. Boy, have you guys proven me wrong! Anyhow, this week, we completed our migration to 0.95 and magic removal which was painful but has shown us how much more great work you guys have been up to. Before the move, we were running on a hacked version of 0.91 that we had spent some cycles optimizing, mostly around ORM caching, and my big fear was that when we rolled live with MR, we were going to see all sorts of crazy slow-downs. Again, I am thrilled to have been proven wrong. I wanted to do something nice for those of you that like the kind of thing that we do at Tabblo (see here: http://app.tabblo.com/studio/view/favorites/antonio for some examples) and after talking to Adrian, we've decided that the simplest most direct thing would be to offer anyone who is so inclined a coupon for a free poster. Since we don't normally do this kind of thing, the process for getting it is going to be a little cumbersome: just send me an email (antonio at tabblo dot com) with the subject line "I am a Django developer" and I'll make sure you get the coupon within a couple of days. In the meanwhile, feel free to play with the site and take pride in what you've helped us accomplish. Standing here on the shoulders of giants, Antonio --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Django developers" group.
