Hi folks!
I just want to know your option about these two cool databases!!!
I have a large experience with MySQL and I am adapting myself to use PostgreSQL. I also know that MySQL is intended to be a stable and fast database to use with small to medium sized applications, and PostgreSQL its a good (and free) resource to build a great apllication to the mass market...
Anyway, what do you think? Do you use MySQL often than PostgreSQL?

This should provide some useful info on the two:

I use MySQL, but may try PostgreSQL at some point - for now though, MySQL is more than enough. It's apparently a lot more reliable for sites that don't get humongous amounts of traffic...something my sites obviously don't get, hehe.
