Through an odd bit of twists and turns while surfing, I happened upon PLEAC. This site is dedicated to solving the same problems in different languages thus creating a vast online knowledge base for each language represented. PLEAC will be a great resource whenever you want to sit down and learn a new language or you are bumping your head into a problem that you know has already been solved. The site is based off of Tom Christiansen and Nathan Torkington's Perl Cookbook. What a treasure trove this is.
And just for fun, here is a map of the twisty path I took to find this treasure: Dave Johnson's Blog had a link to wikidPad. Curious to see who built such an interesting peice of work, I deleted the wikidPad from the url and ended up at Jason Hormans Blog which then had a blurb from November 2003 about PLEAC. All I can say is, WOW! What luck.
