    Chaps and chaplettes

    Which websites do you use regularly and why?

    Theres a number of sites I use, but I never know how best to tackle this question, what answers would you give?

        Depends on what you are interviewing for, but I guess they are looking to find out who you think your peers are.

          Yeah, but a permie interviewer shouldn't be able to afford to use that particular 'online shop'

          And you forgot thehun.net and xhamster

            well the kind of roles im contracting for are content editor/publisher roles.
            I was thinking if there was a more generic answer to this question, how would I go about preparing for it?

            spankwire almost came to mind, its got nice navigation and recommends vids too

              I often ask that one when I'm interviewing - not really looking for a 'correct' answer - it's more to start with a question that the interviewee can answer and a bit of an ice breaker. FWIW, nearly everyone says google!

                    Vendor sites e.g. oracle, ibm etc
                    Books 24x7
                    Safari
                    ACM digital library
                    Google

                    And then lots of other stuff for personal things.
                    While you're waiting, read the free novel we sent you. It's a Spanish story about a guy named 'Manual.'
