RE: OraGeeks$ : SUPPORT FOR SITE

Hi All,

It seems that the technotes written by Roby and his colleagues are still there (for now). You can get links to 8 of them by searching for "interealm" using the Ixora search engine, and another one on IIOP setup is still accessible via Google.

Also, if you were in the habit of using the OraGeeks technote search facility to find materials elsewhere on the web, then may I recommend the Ixora search engine as an alternative. Most of the content that was linked to from OraGeeks is fully indexed at Ixora (plus lots more) and although there is no way of browsing by category there is a keyword search facility. So its not as good for browsing, but better if you're searching for something specific.

Hi Folks ,
I am sure some of you would be remembering "orageeks " website http://www.interealm.com/orageeks/ Well.....the site owner Roby Sherman who is a frequent poster in this site has closed the site down . When I asked the reason he sent me the following . I agree with his sentiments . Thought since this a place real talent hangs out I thought some of you could chip in .

" Hi Raj:

More or less, I was looking for volunteers to help maintain the
technical content of the directory. That means helping me with finding
new resources (that weren't links to some company's product) to add to
the directory on an ongoing basis, communicating with me when they
found
a resource that was outdated or inappropriate, help with the addition /
modification of directory categories, Etc. Heck, even contributing a
small technical note once in a blue moon wouldn't have hurt either.

Cheers!
