Death of the AP

Let's connect some dots:

The AP's wire services have become almost irrelevant to local newspapers.

U.S. Newspapers are lining up in droves as part of a consortium to partner with Yahoo for distribution and other support.

The AP partners with Google to house the articles and photos that normally linked back to newspaper web sites.

Given those datapoints, I would guess we'll see a lot AP contracts ending.

I have actually payled with Ruby and RoR. It's definitely nice. Really like the concept.But I find that once you get to know it, Django is just as fast to develop with as RoR, plus it's Python!!!And yes, RoR is not exactly a speed demon. =PIf you are looking for an alternative, Lift might interest you. It's based on Scala (runs on the Java VM), and is very innovative in a lot of ways.
