StackOverflow For Any Topic

RobinH writes "StackOverflow, the successful question-and-answer website for programmers, is now over a year old and its top user has just passed 100,000 reputation points. Now one of the creators of StackOverflow, Joel Spolsky, and his company Fog Creek, are developing a software-as-a-service form of the StackOverflow engine called StackExchange to support any topic you want. The software is currently in private beta, but the first few beta sites have surfaced. Topics include business travel, the home, parenthood, the environment, finance, and iPhone game development."

  1. Except it's a terrible site. by kuzb · · Score: 1, Troll

    The problem with stackoverflow is that the answer most likely to get modded up is the first answer. There are a lot of times when the very first answer is completely wrong. Another example of how stupid Joel is.
