    No, but I did introduce a colleague to the CodeProject. He is a bit of a electronics hack and is always busy fettling. When the CodeProject was running the Hardware competition I suggested he writes an article and submit it. Off he went, joined the Codeproject, wrote the article, submitted it and won the 1st Place prize of a robotics kit. Which he kindly gave to me for the kids. He won with this article; Radio Control Transmitter - Joystick[^]

    You introduced someone to CP, and got a prize out of it? Wow!

      Has anyone met a CP member just by switching jobs?

      I haven't switched jobs, so the answer is NO. However, a few years ago I mentioned something to my son and found out he is a member here and has posted an article. The grandkids make sure we rarely talk about work when we get together.

          As hard as it might be to believe, I rarely meet anyone (programmers) locally that even knows about Codeproject.

          You are right. 99.9999% of the programmers who are members of Codeproject live either in India or China and are looking for free code or help with their homework! ;P

            One day a workmate suggested me CodeProject as useful source of programming info. I said enthusiastically: "Oh, yes, I know it. I've written a couple of articles". He didn't mention CP again, I don't know why.

            If you had told him how you found code snippets there that you were able to use in your peoject, you would have had a great conversation going with him! :laugh:

              Yes, a number of times though it is not as well known as it ought to be. You'd think, with 8.5m members it would be better known - perhaps CM needs to do some active marketing!

              Yeah. You would think they could offer free homework help! ;P

                I have never met anyone who knows CP. The only other French CPian I know on CP is toxcct, but I am not sure he is still here. So the probability is really low.

                Wow, guess what, years since I last logged into CP ^^ (actually, a friend reported this post to me) So, yes, I left CP years ago, and I don't think I have time and motivation anymore... Maybe once CP converts to Oracle Siebel technologies :-D

                      No no no, I'm not back, I was just here to reply to this very post talking about me :cool: VisualCalc is a cool app, and I'm still using it from times to times. The problem is that I totally lost my C/C++ skills as I'm not working with this language at all at work, and there cooler calculators on the web IMO, so I lost the excitment.
