Same here. Normally Google and look around until I find an answer; and for the newer technologies, watch YouTube video tutorials.
Like I said, when I ask tech questions in most other forums including all the stack* sites, I rarely get a reply; or I get a reply which is off-base and not helpful.
When I was refreshing my Javascript and jQuery coding recently, I found everything I needed from Google searches and YT.
When I see other forums like this one (like all the legacy vB forums, etc) this site is much better. But when I compare to the "newer generation" taxonomy-driven forums, I often feel I should change our forums to be taxonomy (tag) driven versus centered around hard-coded forums; but I'm not sure if that would make much difference - although it might force posters to tags their questions and posts more often, LOL
