Thank everyone for participation. Did some more research and found out two interesting projects: http://smart.fm – a next generation learning platform from Japan featuring personal…

Thanks for suggestion, will definitely look at it.

Maybe not hosting content yourself, but embed it somehow into your website.

Good point, will think on that.

Seems very promising. I like the slogan – "explanatory social learning". How many users do you have at this moment? Have you contacted content owners to ask them for permission to …

Yeah, you're right, the biggest problem is to make users interested from the beginning. That's why I'm not going to build it from scratch. My partner built a unique educational web…

A very interesting project, will look at it.

Thanks, that seems interesting. But it is only a platform for creating online educational communities, correct me if I'm wrong. I'm more thinking of a service that is a combination…

Is that news? Irssi has been around and well-known for quite a long time...

you might want to take a look at oovoo.com, don't know if it's capable of video recording though...

Does auto scaling mean my instance will grow in ram/cpu/other resources or i'll be just given more new instances?

Given real conditions that the minimal slot for VM is a 256MB RAM instance, with a physical server having 64 such slots, the educated guess is that the distribution might be simila…

That's not a simple question. But I would guess having one 2-slot migration is better than two 1-slot migrations...

Yes, completely reject if it's not possible at all.

We can't reject as it'll be used in the commercial application with users paying money for using cloud resources. Basically what is needed is to find the list of VM migrations need…

That's not that simple. Let us imagine the following configuration. We have 3 servers each of 4 slots, below is the state of each server (the state of a server is a set of VMs it's…
