Scaling Pinterest: Simplicity Wins
Pinterest has become 4th most popular social site, in mere 2 years.
Here is a presentation @ InfoQ with some "lessons learned":
Scaling Pinterest
DB Clustering is complex, Sharding is simpler, simpler is better.
The most interesting statement is on the very end:
on question how is data security protected for "guessing" URLs,
the (almost surprised) answer is: all data are public
Since all is public, there is noting to protect :)
(that is until recently, when they introduced "private" also).

By the way, there is even a $149 tool for creating "Pinterest clones",
that even has warning about "illegal copies", that would be clones of the clone :)
Imagine "impersonators of Elvis Presley impersonators" :)
No doubt Pinterest has succeeded. It is running on Amazon Web Services,
so there is an opportunity for a "clone" on Azure, as well as Netflix and YouTube clone on Azure :)

Linked Data as "a term used to describe a recommended best practice for exposing, sharing, and connecting pieces of data, information, and knowledge on the Semantic Web using URIs and RDF."
Semantic Web is one on of W3C technologies that is useful, but not used much, because it is misunderstood, and used often in wrong way.
In fact, Semantic (Web) technology is used in some of core Google's tools, as well as in Microsoft's Search tools. They are just not visible for end-users.
Another similar example is SVG, Scalable Vector Graphics: created 12 years ago, it is now becoming popular to help with high-resolution screens of various sizes.
