I heard somewhere that Facebook uses Node for recording stats. (Can't dig up the story though :S)

I remember there was HN item about this when it came out, but tl;dr of the article that I got was, some people want to use Node.js but performance + stability is what FaceBook wants, and something that isn't prevalent in Node (yet?)

I wait for the day when NodeJS breaks backward compatability

node.js breaks backward compatibility every time it increments the x in its 0.x.y version number.

gilt.com uses (or used) node.js for real-time web analytics. Hummingbird was the first project that got me really excited about node.js.
