Don't move your queen too early?

I'm sure by now we have all heard the principle 'Don't move your queen too early in the opening!' This is sound advice, because your queen could become a good target for your opponent allowing him or her to develop with tempo. I'm sure that many of you have avoided early disaster by following this simple principle.

I agree with the adage, however after years of playing I would  modify the wording a little. Today, I would say something like this:

In the opening, consider well the square on which you wish to move your queen. Can my queen be attacked on that square? If so, how can I respond?

I have come to this place because of the numerous games I've seen where either my opponent or I have played an early queen move, and the result of the game was favorable. Recently, I finished a team match in which an early queen move by me proved to be very disruptive to my opponent. Here's the match: http://www.chess.com/echess/game.html?id=21497116

In another game I played against the late Nakamura_Fan , my opponent beat me pretty handily after moving his queen on the 2nd move. Here's that match: http://www.chess.com/echess/game.html?id=21702594

I'd like to hear the group's thoughts on the subject of early queen moves. There are probably thousands of examples out there.

I used to bring my queen out early but i stoped

I remember the first game... man that was a good game!  I've got a new defense against the Winawer that I've been trying out... the Bogo Variaion. 

Man I'm thinking we should do a series on Gambits.  Man I got up on GM Boris after you mentioned him... the guy is a WEALTH of information on Gambits!  I watched his video on the French Chatard/Alekhine gambit and played it in a tournament with a sweet victory.

Pete, I have ALL of GM Boris Alterman's gambit videos. That's the set that my wife got for me. You have a GMAIL account, so I can send them to you through GoogleTalk, if you want them.
