Perhaps I misstated my impression - what I really mean is that Google appears to find me noticeably fewer hits for DB2 questions than it does for the others. Of course, a great deal of what I find for the others is garbage. Maybe DB2 folks tend to concentrate in just a few venues rather than spattered all across the web. If so, Google would tend to give a misleading impression at first glance - I need to pay more attention to the "similar results". So far it has seemed like 50% of the useful (to me) DB2 material I have found was written by Serge (and not just for DB2 - Serge's comments on Oracle have also been useful once or twice!) I think that will change as I better understand how to find where the DB2 goodness is. -- Peter Headland |
