I've done about 4 non trivial projects with Clojuire. (a) some fairly serious SEO related to RFS1 (b) a news aggregator (c) music-compojure http://github.com/mhowlett/music-compojure (d) some investment portfolio performance calculations.

I really like the language. Am I productive with it? Not really - as a guess, I'm about 3 times faster with .NET / C# (with which I'm very experienced). I might be able to get to the same level of productivity, but it'd certainly take me a while to get there.

do you have the source code for the news-aggregator?

Have you experimented with F# a bit yet?

Not really because I'm fairly keen to move away from the Microsoft platform.
