I wanted to build a website of which at least half of the content will be from the visitors input. I'll store data in a database, and mine it and display on the website along with other content. I'm looking for a best framework for it to build quickly, with less coding from my side. I was suggested Symfony and Ruby On Rails so far. I wanted to get input from huge Slashdot community also. Any suggestion is very much appreciated. Thanks.

Writing on the New York Times Op-Ed page (subscription required), Robert X. Cringely suggests that a Google-Verizon deal could involve placement of Google data centers in or near Verizon data centers, resulting in shorter latencies from users to Google and back, without explicit favoritism toward some traffic over others. "With servers so close to users, Google could not only send its data faster but also avoid sending it over the Internet backbone that connects service providers and for which they all pay. This would save space for other traffic — and money for both Verizon and Google, as their backbone bills decline (wishful thinking, but theoretically possible). Net neutrality would be not only intact, but enhanced."
