	Jolt Hall of Fame (Mar 2007)	Since 1996, only a dozen top software developer products and tools have been inducted into the Jolt Hall of Fame. In 2007, IBM developerWorks was so honored. The Jolt awards are essentially the "Oscars" of the software development industry, and Hall of Fame inductees are the elite few "consistent winners" of Jolt awards "whose high-quality has been proven and maintained over time." In rare agreement, the judges praised developerWorks as "a treasure trove of IT-related topics and technologies [that] often has better technical articles than commercial publications."
