I completely agree on the note of SO. Q&A sites have been around for a long time, but Jeff & Co just made a site [being evil] that encourages good answerds by enabling dev's to foster their ego by showing off how intelligent they are.[/being evil] Without the social web aspect SO would never be where it is right now. I am not saying this is bad, not at all. When working heaviliy on SO to build up a personal brand, just one thing to remember is: with every hour you are spending on SO to answer questions, you are actually working for free for SO's to some degree. Even if the data is Creative Commons - they are making *a lot* of money on the ads, jobs, and whitelabelling solutions and the value of those are mostly dependent on the data. So and now I'll head over to SO looking for some JRuby answers ;) As always very concise post with some pragmatic thoughts.
