This was originally posted on my blog. I've spent more time than I would like to admit on various Q&A sites and forums related to developmen...

And for the love of code, if you do ask a question, and someone takes the time to answer it, then take the time to respond:

  1. If it fixed your issue, accept it
  2. If it was useful, upvote it
  3. If it didn't help, comment how it didn't help

Great post!

Okay, Google didn't help. What's next? I don't believe you.

So, why it isn't working?
Uhh, you have my full understanding :) Sometimes people really forget the simple rules of looking for the answer. But that's why I'm a fan of lmgtfy ;)
Ant thanks for great tips to spread ;)

Tremendous advice. This is a real skill and it takes a long time to hone. I have noticed that it is far from intuitive for new programmers and I find I still struggle with this. Thanks so much.
