I am currently living in DC, so I am used to the city and don't really like suburbs that much. So whats a good place that has the big city feel with lots of hacker activities?

I was joking about illegal drug delivery. I don't think its legal to send medicine through intermediaries, so I don't actually think it would work for something like CVS/Walgreen. But besides that, I like the idea of sending physical packets in a P2P network. Think of how torrents work and try to apply that to your business model. (might help)

I like that idea of doing a video, but instead of showing what are the different features of the application, show the problems this solves. Thank you!

I was thinking about making that an open source jQuery plugin. If you would like I can provide it to you. There are a few issues with it right now however. After I fix those issues, I can provide it.

To tell the truth, the best way to learn to develop something is to go and do it, mess up, read some article, and do everything possible before asking for help. If you can figure out how to solve the problem yourself, then you not only learn how to develop, but also learn how to tackle a problem in the future. If someone is "coaching" or "mentoring" you, you wont ever learn, and both of you will be frustrated. I recommend start small and grow your dev chops. Make the development of your idea the way to learn to do it and keep the motivation for learning.

We mainly use TableStorage as well for storing data, however since none of the data that we have is stored (besides user information) we have each webnode talking directly to each other. I am not quite sure if each of these transactions costs money, but since all the connections between servers are stable connections that are left open in a separate thread, I am thinking it will be pretty cheap. We did run into some problems when using TableStore since I think we underestimated how much we need Count, GroupBy, Sort, etc. Even basic operations such as bringing back a list to display to the user, then clicking to sort by a column is difficult.

It's OK. We just started hosting on Azure, and I wonder what people thought of it in the long term with scaling and usability. It is however some buggy and sometimes slow, but in general I really like it.
