"Saving up." It's nearly an alien concept in this "buy with debt" world, but into that breach steps SmartyPig. The site lets you set and save for specific goals in their online savings accounts at a competitive 3.9% APY savings rate. There's all sorts of built-in graphs and widgets to track your progress, but then you can make it social, if you like, by making a page where your goals public and having friends and family or other random people on the net track and root for your progress, or even contribute to your goal.

This “next-gen” facility will be different than the traditional data center, supposedly using the “container” model they have been working on. Basically a container is a semi-trailer (or shipping container that you see on barges and trains). Within this container are 1,000 - 2,000 servers. These containers are, literally, trailers that can be hauled in via trucks to scale the system. Microsoft has built a similar data center in Chicago that has two floors. Currently, the entire first floor is made up of 150-200 of these containers.

Local bloggers - including Nathan T. Wright, Andy Brudtkuhl and Brett Trout - created posts and Twitter messages informing customers that TrustyPig was using the SmartyPig Web design features illegally.

Within a couple days, TrustyPig began replacing its Web designs, Gaskel said.

SmartyPig was launched early this year as the nation's first online savings account with social networking capacity, where friends and family can contribute to savers' accounts at West Bank to help meet specific savings goals.

TrustyPig's Web site says it is an online marketing company. It's not clear where the site operates from, but a post on it explains that the SmartyPig mistake occurred when "a programer from Romania and a designer from China" were hired to design Web pages.
