Wow you're really quite negative regarding Stack Overflow. Is there a reason? Many many many people find it an excellent resource for their problems, and others find it a great place to sharpen their tools. Do you have the same attitude towards wikipedia?

I agree it's an excellent resource. I have several profiles there http://stackoverflow.com/users/722796/pj-brunet

They're already monetizing it with http://careers.stackoverflow.com/employer

They don't really have much competition but I think http://snipt.net/ is a good alternative in certain situations.
