Anyone know of any good messageboards for programmers? What do yall use out there? I'm stranded at a company with little to no software programmers, and I'd like to be able to bounce ideas off of people or at least have a place I can go with questions (other than Google). Thx

^Nothing but ads...wrong url?

http://www.experts-exchange.com/

i'd be surprised if any programmer didn't already know about it - just about anytime you run into a somewhat common problem and google search it an experts-exchange link comes up typically

i bet they'd be able to answer a SEO question fairly well

DON'T PAY FOR EXPERTS-EXCHANGE!

Just do this in google...
site:experts-exchange.com whatever-your-problem-is-here

Then click the "Cached" link below the appropriate search result. Scroll all the way down to the bottom and viola, free information.

lol, this reminds me of something i read once about domain names with ambiguous readings..

i.e., expertsexchange.com. i'm pretty sure that used to be the domain but now they have it with the dash.
