Stack Overflow was great when it appeared. The info was spread out incredibly wide and there was a lot of really shitty info as well. One place where it could accumulate and be rated was extremely helpful.
But maybe it's time to create a federated open source Stack Overflow.
They also committed to providing open dumps of their data to make it free to all. At the start, they were doing all the right things.
It all went downhill when they banned and slandered Monica.
Who's Monica?
Take a read here. It's a better summary than I could manage.
Oh, that's pretty bad... thanks for the link
