Talking of SO - my ad serving company is about to start serving ads onto SO and some other tech sites - i will point them out if they go live - all served from asp.net using uniobjects with unidata as the main ad server.

Not trying to evangelize or get migration, just announcing. I joined u2-users, because that is where the community is currently. With that said SO is technically a superior medium for Q/A type stuff -- it is just new. I imagine it will kill off a large number of questions in the very near future. This is probably a good thing. I will be answering questions I can on SO pertaining to this topic. And, I have retroactively went back and tagged the 10 questions that were asked with u2 to ease the use of SO, and seed the u2 userbase there. I have a good deal of faith in SO's rapid growth, the popular perl forum perlmonks.com is consistently receiving fewer perl-related questions than SO: granted these are both web mediums. -- Evan Carroll System Lord of the Internets _______________________________________________ U2-Users mailing list [email protected] http://listserver.u2ug.org/mailman/listinfo/u2-users _______________________________________________ U2-Users mailing list [email protected] http://listserver.u2ug.org/mailman/listinfo/u2-users
