Yes. I have a personal blog that is 1) for me to remember all the things that I have done and 2) to share with friends and family and anyone else who might benefit from what I have learned. Also, this reminds me of a post from Paul Buchhei

I'll start looking for some MongoDB cheat sheets. If you know of any, feel free to suggest them.

I'm happy to add it. Do you know of any good Groovy cheatsheets?

Thanks for the input. The examples you mentioned are more similar to the tags view ( http://devcheatsheet.com/?view=tag ), which is not currently the default.

I can see how that could be confusing. Linking directly from the list of formats might work. I'll look into it. Thanks.

Adding the date created is on my todo list. This information might not be available for every one, but it would be useful for the ones that do have it.

I think it is a good idea to enable users to give some feedback. I will look into ways to report broken links. Thanks for pointing that out.

The Google Ads are just a placeholder. I think Amazon books would be very relevant, and I am going to look into some other affiliate programs such as thinkgeek.com.

I agree that there needs to be a way to easily distinguish between versions. I am planning to add version keywords but haven't gotten to it yet. Also, I hope to add more sorting options too, such as date created, which might also help.

Whenever possible I try to link to a download page instead of directly to a PDF or image file. However, in some cases I do hotlink directly to a file download. One advantage of this is that if the author updates the file (to fix an error)

I agree that can be a problem with the outdated cheatsheets. The wiki could be an interesting idea. Thanks.

No, right now I am the only one who approves new content, even in languages that I am not familiar with. Reviewing every command in every cheatsheet would be a very difficult and time-consuming process. In general, I have not noticed many

Yes, I personally run the whole site from design to development to content. I am still in the process of adding features and more cheatsheets.

That does sound like a great idea, but it is a little beyond the scope of this site.

No problem. There is currently a link to your blog from the source page. Would you like me to change this link to your cheat sheet list? Or are you talking about a separate link? In general, I try to avoid direct links to PDFs except whe

I've debated adding community features like voting or comments on the cheatsheets, but I haven't decided yet. I may experiment with some of these features in the future. There is currently the option for anyone to suggest a cheatsheet that

Thanks for the input, Vindexus. I have considered adding a short description to each cheatsheet, and I intend on adding additional tags as well. However, I am trying to be cautious and maintain the clean look without overwhelming the user
