 As much as I also hate giving money to domain squatters I also think
 that the purchase should continue now that the money has been raised
 for that goal.

 I think the redis.io domain is nowadays way way cooler than plain
 redis.org. I'd stick with redis.io and have redis.org as well as
 redis-db.org redirect there.

 That's the easy part. The real question is which kind of content is
 the best for the Redis project website and how nice and modern it
 should look?

 I think Salvatore and Pieter together with many of you guys have so
 far produced a good deal of information and most of it is available at
 Redis' Google Code site. It would be really great if some of us could
 put together a really cool, good looking and pretty modern site just
 reorganizing, curating and updating most of that information.

 The current site at redis.io is "opensource" and anybody can work on
 it so maybe that's exactly what we need: set some goals, create some
 issues there at Github and work on them.

 A project like Mongoid seems to have a very nice looking, simple,
 useful site at http://mongoid.org/, please take a look. Maybe we
 should aim for something somewhat similar to that in design and
 content as a first milestone.

not bad if we are not very disciplined and detailed in documents, is that
despite an interesting and mature community, we have not yet reached the
time of marketing ;), the project Redis everything goes very fast


 The current Cassandra's website is not a good looking as the Mongoid
 one but so far does a better job than Redis.io for providing quick
 access to the most relevant resources in a few clicks.

 Also finding the appropiate logo and sticking with it for a good while
 would be very beneficial to the project's communication efforts.

 So let's go for all of this, Redis is great and it's related resources
 should be also awesome as the software itself.
