is that what people used stackoverflow for? I google cheatsheets for simple syntax reminders.
What I found stack overflow useful for was 'I have this random bug in this random browser / os combo - here's what hasn't worked, has anyone dealt with it?' - and then hopefully we can all share the misery of this bug until someone figures out the source.
Not sure where to go for that type of thing anymore.
Not exactly why people seek out SO, but it shows up in Google searches and people click. Now there are fewer google searches for that sort of thing.
