I'm looking for details about how linkedIn manages "Search Skills & Expertise". Somebody knows how tags comparison could work? On what algorithms developers could have based the tag comparing system? Something like a "binary independent model" - like? Every supposition or infos are welcome. I'm trying to think about a system that relates tag like linkedIn "Search Skills & Expertise", so I would start with some good incipit, studying some web information retrieval material and asking to someone who knows more than me about this argument.
Thank you.

Have you asked LinkedIn?
Also they recently released IndexTank as open source sorftware and this is the engine they use for searching and indexing and i suspect that would give you information as you can dow=nload and run it yourself.

I was just wondering in cms systems, with regards to seo and other stuff, is there an advantage by using article slugs in urls like example.com/article/the-article-name versus using the article id such as example.com/article/view/3
No. There is not a significant advantage but there is a small advantage.
It is generally agreed upon that keywords in a URL help "a little bit".
See this video where Google's Matt Cutts answers the question, Does the position of keywords in the URL affect ranking?. In it he says, "it does help a little bit to have keywords in the url".

I'm looking for a premade IRC bot, that i can easily install on some of my channels. They are mainly support channels, so we will need to be able to add commands to give out important notices etc.
All help is much appretiated.
You should have a look at Supybot. It's an extensible and easily configurable IRC bot written in Python. You will find many plug-ins on the official website or on GitHub. If you happen to know some Python, it is probably your best option.
You could also try Eggdrop (or Windrop which is basically an Eggdrop version for Windows). Many TCL scripts (extensions) are available pretty much everywhere.
I suggest you to visit the IRC-Wiki which could be useful when you need information about anything related to IRC.

Does anyone know of a site, newsgroup, message board, etc. where I can submit some of my Scala code to have it "reviewed" by experienced Scala developers? The code works and whatnot, but I'd really like to learn to be more idiomatic when coding Scala, and often I find myself reverting to more imperative like development because I can't find a "better way."
Try on Code Review
My advice is to upload your project to github - make sure to add copyright and licensing information. Then post the one or two relevant short snippets on Code Review and link to your project on github.
Note that there are plenty of questions here on stackoverflow where users have asked to turn something that is imperative to something more functional or idiomatic. The key is to break down your problems into distinct issues you're trying to solve then take the one that has the most chance to get an answer and ask a question about it. If you can make it self contained then that really good. See https://stackoverflow.com/search?tab=relevance&q=%5bscala%5d%20%20idiomatic for some ideas...

I am looking for a a free template or tool to help creating an online user's guide (manual) for a web-based system. I have been searching on the web for hours and just found some expensive commercial solutions with too many functionalities.
I am trying to create something like http://help.eclipse.org/helios/index.jsp. Just checked that eclipse has one but seems that can be used just on eclipse RCP projects.
Do you know any free tool or template for this task? I would really appreciate any help.
Many thanks,
Thiago
Docbook good but there's a learning curve...
Why not use an open source wiki? Or something like Doxygen will auto-generate help like documentation from source code.

Looking for an attractive, highly customizable forum plugin to implement. Don't want to build one myself, but don't want to settle for usual crap. Something Ajax-y?
Was leaning towards Community Server but would love to see what others had to reccomend.
Thanks.
EDIT: This is an ASP.NET/C#/SQL application
See http://ask.metafilter.com/52003/Good-community-forum-software
Options
Lussumo's Vanilla
Simple Machines
BBPress
Attractive is subjective, so you'll need to look around.
If you don't already have authentication or anything running, you might check out Active Forums that runs within DotNetNuke. I've been using it and I'm very happy thus far, ajax paging for users, standard paging for bots, social bookmarking built in, and many other nice items.
YetAnotherForum is ASP.NET/C#/SQL like your application and it looks very nice. I'm not sure about AJAX though.
It can run in DotNetNuke, Rainbow, or stand-alone.
