I&#39;m currently reviewing Clojure for some business analytics tools I&#39;ve been tasked to develop.<br>Mainly it&#39;s a case of getting up to speed with the Halloway book before I can make any recommendations.<br><br><div class="gmail_quote">

<br>
This is an inspiring story of the use of Clojure along with many other<br>
technologies to build a flight delay prediction tool<br>
(<a href="http://flightcaster.com" target="_blank">flightcaster.com</a>).<br>
<br>
Read it through.. it&#39;s quite the hacker&#39;s dream:<br>
<br>
Hadoop + Cascading + Amazon EC2/S3 + Ruby on Rails (Heroku) + Clojure<br>
<br>
Who wouldn&#39;t love to work on something like this?<br>
<br>
I wonder if Clojure is superseding Common Lisp as the &quot;handyman&#39;s<br>
Lisp&quot;. I&#39;ve been using it recently to toy around with various AI ideas<br>
I&#39;ve had for a while, and I&#39;m rather enjoying the elegance and clarity<br>
of the language.<br>
<br>
Has anyone else been working with Clojure this month?<br>
<br>
Regards,<br>
Vish<br>
