MSDN redirects (used to?) here for many searches. At the time my former prison company blocked any site that wasn't MSDN, so we (as in the entire development team) had to make a specific request and wait several months before they opened CP too.

I must have been looking for an answer to a WPF question based on when my profile was created. I had just started a new job, my current job, and was tasked with creating a new UI for an existing product.
It will be 10 years for me this coming April.
I’ve given up trying to be calm. However, I am open to feeling slightly less agitated.

A coworker of mine who was better at C# than me (probably still is) used the site. I figured if it was good enough for him, I should give it a try.

from Gamedev.net, people there recommended CP articles on several occasions.

I toined left at Albekoiky.
Nah, a colleague who was a recent college grad at the time told me about it.

They graduated college via codez requests on CP?

I was searching for genderless alien pictures on AltaVista and up popped Bob. 🤪🤪
If you can't laugh at yourself - ask me and I will do it for you.

Like other here, I was looking for information on something and google directed me here. Now CP is part of my daily rituals.

I don’t know what is the reasoning for a double “find” in the title, I for one have my copies slightly different then the original

I was a former denizen of codeguru.com and one day I got an e-mail from Chris saying he had just started a new site and I was pre-registered for it. That new site was this one. The member count was pretty low then, less than one thousand as I recall, but it increased rather rapidly.

Like a number of replies here looking for code help. It was Visual Basic 6.
Think I asked a question NOT IN THE Lounge
This thread begs the question.
Why do you participate in CP and what do you get from it?
At my level of expertise and only using VB.Net I participate (contribute) very little.
What I do get from CP is reading the view of some very intelligent and funny people who just happen to code
and are associated with the software industry from around the World.
How did the little Green Alien get the name Bob?

I needed to add database processing to a program I was working on in C++ back around 2004 I think. I asked a colleague if he knew of a library that took care of much of the tedious low level stuff. I just wanted to connect, query, process recordsets and such in my code. He told me to check out a site called CodeProject. I did and found an article and code that seemed to be written for my exact use case. I was able to easily include and use it in several C++ projects that needed DB access. I liked the atmosphere and attitude of the whole site and have remained a member ever since.

Before CodeProject there was CodeGuru, created by Zafir Anjum. Chris and a bunch of us contributed several articles to that site. In 1997, Chris figured he could build a better site - and he was right. A bunch of us volunteered, but Chris did most of the heavy lifting. The early volunteers managed specific sections (there were only about a dozen when the site started). I managed the MFC Controls section which was near and dear to my heart and designed the site's joke post icon.
Since then CodeProject has grown beyond what most of us expected, and as we know is now one of the de facto sources of information for C# devs. Congratulations to Chris and Dave and the CP team!

Nice!
There's something special about having the opportunity to be an early employee at a successful company. To say it's a learning experience is an understatement.
