Back in the day the [FlexCoders Yahoo! Group][1] was all the rage. It was the place where Flex rock stars like [Alex Harui][2] and [Doug McCune][3] hung out and helped the community learn Flex. But these days a lot of developers have turned to [StackOverflow.com][4] as their primary resource for getting answers to their technical questions. I started using Stack Overflow over a year ago primarily because it makes it easy to follow the conversation around a specific question and quickly identify the right answer. Stack Overflow totally nails what I need as a developer when I have problems and questions. Many Flex rock stars have stepped up and frequently answered questions on Stack Overflow and I wanted to highlight the top 10 contributors to [the "Flex" tag][5].

As of June 18, 2010 the top 10 Flex contributors on Stack Overflow ([based on "All Time" total score][6]) are:
