Stack Overflow – My new favorite web site for programming answers

When I have a programming question, I usually google a few keywords and can usually find the results.  Google results tends to point to many discussion forums sometimes with unanswered questions or to “official” documentation from say Apple or MySQL.  In many cases, I have to google  for the answer because the official documentation is of little or no help.

Recently, I’ve found that the web site that gives me the best result tend to be Stack Overflow.

“Stack Overflow is a collaboratively edited question and answer site for programmers — regardless of platform or language. It’s 100% free, no registration required.”
