Cool, sexy...
Useful sites to make your programming easier, better, faster, happier.

Dateline: 01/04/2000

   Sympathy for resources...

Borland Community
Site is organized into natural constituent parts: communities, neighborhoods, and streets. Within each community are neighborhoods devoted to particular aspects of software development (specially: Delphi). Within neighborhoods are streets that cover topics in finer and finer detail. Articles, applications, and newsgroups appear within communities, neighborhoods, and streets...

Win32 API
The Microsoft Win32 application programming interface (API) allows applications to exploit the power of the 32-bit Windows family of operating systems. Using the Win32 API, we can develop applications that run successfully on all 32-bit versions of Windows while taking advantage of the features and capabilities unique to each version. Provide your application with a graphical user interface; display graphics and formatted text; and manage system objects such as memory, files, and processes.

Wotsit's Format - the programmer's resource
Writing code to handle different file formats is a fundamental part of applications programming. If you're looking for the format of a particular file, this site contains file format information on hundreds of different file types and all sorts of other useful programming information; algorithms, source code, specifications, etc. Site includes an excellent search engine allowing you to easily find the information you need.

Interface Hall of Fame
The Hall of Fame is a collection of design solutions that will likely improve the effectiveness and usability of all applications that employ them. Demonstration of interface design solutions that are both creative and effective.

Interface Hall of Shame
The Interface Hall of Shame is an irreverent look at ineffective interface design. The site includes a collection of images from commercial, corporate, and shareware applications that illustrate how software should not be designed.

Whatis?com
Whatis.com is a knowledge exploration tool about information technology, especially about the Internet and computers. It contains over 2,000 individual encyclopedic definition/topics and a number of quick-reference pages.
