I recently deleted someone’s thread at coderanch where the post was just links to blog posts. There’s a time and place for everything. Which got me thinking about where it belongs. Let’s look at some social media sites for Java.
Sharing links
Starting point is sharing links followed by comments/discussion. I’m leaving out the framework specific forums like Spring’s.
Forums or Q&A
Starting point is a question or discussion topic.
Q&A only
I separate stack overflow because it is more Q&A focused than the forum sites.
What else?
What others do you use? Which is your favorite?
