MSDN Forums

I’ve tried using the MSDN newsgroups in the past and, frankly, in this day
and age it’s a real pain. I have to remind myself how to use Outlook Express and
have a really hard time finding what I’m looking for. Any post I make is
accompanied by a feeling of guilt - have I looked hard enough to see if my
question has already been answered? Is this the right newsgroup? Then I have to
remember to revisit later to check for answers.

Well, it looks like those days are coming to an end, as
MSDN is
opening web-based forums
! One thing that Jim didn’t mention in his post is
that the forum content will be searchable from our web-crawling search engine
friends (such as Google), so we won’t even have to remember to visit them! Any
relevant topics in the forums will appear alongside the other search results.
Fantastic.
