Just a suggestion

I know that many of the users at this forum do have some knowledge of either computer programming, or web programming....so I thought that it might be a good idea to set up a sub-forum and/or forum for this so that we can exchange coding, ask questions, show tutorials (I have made some on PHP), etc.

I say sub-forum since it would take a while to fill up a normal forum...and it it were to become big enough, then you could make it a full forum .

We tried it a few years ago (?) with limited success but who knows... a sub-forum within the Software & Utilities forum might not be a bad idea at all.

Ok

I've only been here for 2 years, so I wasn't around for the first time around ^_^

As I pointed out last time around, there's such a large set of languages and environments
(including a matrix for OS, platforms, client/server, + web programming)
that it would require several levels of subforums just to local the correct subject area.
An example of the problem can be seen in Newsgroups comp.* -- several hundred exist.

As a programmer, this is interesting, but the great part of T.S. is the site is
well focused and well supported for PC/Windows -- heck, even Mac OS X and Linux forums are limited in participation.
(imo) It's better to do well in a specific area than to be so broad as to be a marshmellow of little value.

Count me in too... I'll always be a programmer, you never loose that skill as that's how I got into this stuff way, way, way back.. Okay COBOL IBM Keypunch cards.. !

I've asked this same question some time ago. I am a programmer as well and would like to see such forums on TS.

Either way it plays out, I'll enjoy this site!

Happy coding everyone!

Thanks for all of your opinions

Java and Visual Basic next year in Computer Science class

Right on...Good luck!

I want to go back to school but don't have time.
