StackOverflow is site created by Jeff Atwood of the excellent blog CodingHorror.com together with Joel Spolsky of Joel On Software that allows programmers to ask each other questions in an open forum.
Very quickly, it’s become one of the best technical resources on the web, now whenever I have a generic question about programming, I go there and do a quick search (you can also map it as OpenSearch in your browser). Of the past 10 such situations, there was already a thread there on the topic, with majority of responses very well reasoned. A lot of great developers hang out there and there is a ton of useful information.
In addition to frequenting the site, I also listen to the StackOverflow Podcast – the Signal to Noise ratio isn’t amazing, but it’s a good background conversation to listen to while doing something else.
