Depends where the money went. If it was used to keep a lot of people in full-time employment for an extended period, then it's tax money well spent. I don't think I'm being too cynical in believing that that's not the case, though.
I wanna be a eunuchs developer! Pass me a bread knife!

The definition of "job creation" shouldn't involve having people employed by the state, but rather to stimulate the local economy to favor job creation in the private sector. So no, if it kept people in full-time state employment, for doing nothing, I (respectfully) disagree :)

Did not load on Firefox. In case they need a redesign, I'd be glad to do it for only 1/4 of the monex they have already spent.

"Tutto il mondo e' paese" Proverb that should translate "It's the same the whole world over". If it consoles you italia.it cost 58'100'000 of Euros (for now). (http://www.repubblica.it/2007/02/sezioni/scienza_e_tecnologia/portale-italia-polemiche/portale-italia-polemiche/portale-italia-polemiche.html[^], http://millionportalbay.wordpress.com/2007/09/24/italiait-ma-quanto-ci-costi-davvero/[^]) What a waste of public money! The best thing is that it seems that no one is responsible about the failure of this project... And if I do not pay 15 cents to the government the will persecute me...

There must be some fraud or corruption charges that can be applied in a case like that. It's actually a decent-ish outcome, but no way is the real cost anywhere near that – it's been inflated by maybe 3 orders of magnitude (definitely at least 2).
