How does MySpace run?

I just posted this link in another thread, but I figured this was interesting enough to warrant its own thread.

This is a video of a presentation by one of MySpaces two (that's right!) DBAs explaining how they've repeatedly changed their architecture as they've grown. Very interesting stuff!
