Windows Mobile: Searching the docs with Google/MSN Search

  • Article

So be honest: when you look for Windows Mobile documentation while you are programming, what do you do? I’m guessing you probably type something into Google or MSN Search – and that often that brings you right back to MSDN.

 

I’m interested in knowing what you text type into search engines. Are you looking for a particular API, or are you looking for information on a particular technology? Or are you looking for more information on what technologies or APIs you might actually need to solve your particular problem?

 

Do your searches mostly look like:

 

  1. SHGetUIMetrics,
  2. Windows Mobile Bluetooth,
  3. Access a database on Pocket PC, or
  4. Something else?

We’re working on the documentation for Windows Mobile SDKs right now, and the more input we can get, the better. I’d love to hear your thoughts.
