Yeah, before StackOverflow took over everything my web searches for programming problems would usually lead to forum threads. The quality of information would usually be better there, too.

Ironically StackOverflow was formed to solve the problem of every language or tech stack being in their own forums, IRCs, and mailing lists, numbered in the bazillions and non-indexed. Basically Reddit for Q&As.
