How do you sell ads on a bunch of code results? That's the only logical explanation I see for shutting this down.

I find a globally-searchable database of code useful enough to want to rewrite this myself. I won't get all of the Internet, but if I can get Github and GNU / Apache / etc., it will be enough.




i"ve only thought about it for about 30 seconds but it would seem to be the absolute best place to post engineering job ads.


Also - ads for e-books perhaps. If you end up looking at Hibernate code, you are struggling with Hibernate. Why not clicking on "Hibernate In Action"?


interesting source code centric adwords can be imagined here - bidding on specific language, api, library, product :)
