I really do see an opportunity for StackExchange to create a site for this, maybe not in the Q&A format but there is a demand I would bet. | |

| Jul 27, 2011 at 19:03 | comment | added | DMA57361 Mod | The ultimate problem with these question is there is never a right answer, just a forever growing list of "suggestions". Historically, these questions rapidly become noisy and outdated, and the "no right answer" bit really doesn't fit the site's mechanics all that well. And since no one's linked to it yet, have a look at the most recent blog post discussing the subject. | |

| Jul 27, 2011 at 18:10 | comment | added | Brent Pabst | No offense but I've been architecting solutions for businesses for many years now so finding workable solutions is the easy part for me. What I want is reviews or suggestions on systems to look at. Sort of like reading Amazon reviews before buying something. If its a matter of editing the question to re-word it that's fine but the question should not have been closed. I modified it to answer the questions being asked by other users. | |
