TopCoder - forgot to mention - the level of the contests and the quality of the participants seems to be very high. Also UML is used heavily. There are often lots of Russian and other East European developers among the winners - I think it's partly due to their highly developed math and computer science skills. Pretty interesting site, overall, IMO.Vasudev Ramhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/13568740634188042591noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7520738.post-24209028104685735412009-04-16T03:01:00.000+05:302009-04-16T03:01:00.000+05:30Interesting post, Parag.<br /><br />TopCoder is another programming competitions site. IIRC it's only for Java. They also pay good amounts of money in prizes to the winners, and those who do well in the contests get chances to get commercial projects from clients, with whom TopCoder has tie-ups.<br /><br />- VasudevVasudev Ramhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/13568740634188042591noreply@blogger.com
