Stack Overflow Launches

What a cool new website.

Stack Overflow has been upgraded to public beta. Right now, I would say its going to be a cool resource for programmers.

I been hearing about this project for months mainly from Jeff and Joel (from the team) and this is my first look at it, and I must say it is very well built. I still have my doubts on some features like the badges, but I like a lot some others like the points system where you have more power of editing when you contribute more (Once the system learns to trust you, you’ll be able to edit anything, much like Wikipedia).

The description from the site:

Stack Overflow is a programming Q & A site that’s free. Free to ask questions, free to answer questions, free to read, free to index, built with plain old HTML, no fake rot13 text on the home page, no scammy google-cloaking tactics, no salespeople, no JavaScript windows dropping down in front of the answer asking for $12.95 to go away. You can register if you want to collect karma and win valuable flair that will appear next to your name, but otherwise, it’s just free. And fast. Very, very fast.

Take a look…

Very cool commercial from Nokia

Is it just me or this commercial from Nokia is very smart and insightful?

Found it on some TED videos, and can’t think of a more suitable place for this ad.
