NullPointer.ph - Knowledge Exchange Platform for the Filipino Developer Community

Hi guys,
A couple of friends and I started a site *NullPointer.ph*.  It is a *knowledge
exchange platform created to foster the growth of Filipino Developer
community*.  For those of you who are familiar with StackOverflow.com, you
will notice that everything is almost the same - *it is a Question and
Answer site with a reputation system*.  In fact, NullPointer.ph is running
on a similar code base as that of Stack Overflow.

You might be wondering why we still created NullPointer.ph when there's
already Stack Overflow.  Again, the site will be focused on the Filipino
Developer community.  We're planning to promote it to companies and
universities.  Our aim is for NullPointer.ph to become a valuable resource
for local (and foreign) companies to discover local developer talents that
fit their organization through the reputation system.

NullPointer.ph also provides aspiring developers a valuable resource that
can fast track their learning by having immediate access to the minds of the
experienced.  This was something that I felt was missing during my college
years.  And now, the right and probably the best answers to your dev
problems are at your fingertips.

This is also your chance to showcase your problem solving skills and tell
the rest of the dev community that you're better than the average
programmer.  Reach 10,000 reputation points before the others.  Or better
yet, reach 100,000 reputation points and be the NullPointer.ph's Jon Skeet
(the first Stack Overflow user to reach 100k).  Be discovered by companies!

There's more to NullPointer than I can explain here.  The best way would be
to discover the site and start engaging with other developers.  Ask your
questions.  Post answers.  Found a good answer? Vote it up.  Found a bad
one? Vote it down.  Show your awesomeness as a developer.  Remember, it's
should all be about *programming*. Ask about Java, PHP, Ruby on Rails,
Oracle, MySQL, AJAX, HTML, etc.

What are you waiting for? Visit the site: http://nullpointer.ph/

Twitter<http://twitter.com/NullPointerPH>
 and Plurk <http://plurk.com/NullPointerPH>.  Spread the word!

Cheers!

Oh wait! Is built from the proprietary StackExchange(TM) platform then I
guess there's nothing wrong?  Otherwise it *might* be helpful to put the CC
license clearly.

Yup, we used the Stack Exchange platform.
We even asked Jeff Atwood specifically if doing a local Stack overflow was
alright.  He said that it was, but that we couldn't use the Stack Overflow
brand, of course.  :)

We'll put in the content license soon (later?), thanks.  :)
