odoketa writes: "My organization recently had to replace our web developer. It took us an extremely long time to find someone with the necessary skill set. I don't know if this is because of the platform we are running (which I will leave anonymous), or simply the fates conspiring against us.

How are folks out there determining when they've backed the wrong horse, and getting back on track?"

Submission + - eBay pulls Google ads (bbc.co.uk)

According to the story, eBay says it's merely an 'ongoing experiment' on their marketing."
