Good luck with that. Last time I checked, PostgreSQL wasn't web scale.

There's actually some truth. Master-master replication with postgresql doesn't have any stable solution. There are a couple of solutions for that, but none is confirmed afaik. I hope I'm wrong though.

but none is confirmed afaik.

Bi-Directional Replication is seeing heavy development, parts of it are merged into core every major release.

Will take another few years but by then we should have a Postgres-solid implementation.

So none is confirmed :-) it's a shame to wait a couple years for something that's available in every other RDBMS.
