I usually go to Experts Exchange for nearly any question programming related. I love the community, I can almost always find an example or an answer that I can use and adapt into a solution for my work. When I went to look and search for a specific topic, I was dismayed. I learned quickly that only members could search the site now. So with a sigh, I registered. It then told me that only PREMIUM members could seach the site, and for that I was very annoyed. They changed to their own personal search engine, sealed the Previously Asked Questions away, and now want $10 a month to get access to things that were typically enjoyed and used. Free membership gets you now jack squat. Actually, it gets you less than jack squat; sub-jack-squat if you will. Furthermore, there is absolutely no way to cancel your membership with them.
I used to reccomend them, now I'm not so sure anymore. It is much easier just to do a Google search for site:experts-exchange.com, but the results have now become much less precise. While I do not doubt that this information is wonderful for IT professionals, some of us used it simply as an alternative to the hundreds of pages making up the MSDN library. EE was cool, but it wasn't $10 a month cool.
