Doing aĀ re-haulĀ of a Delphi project from almost 15 years ago, and some modifications a few year later, I came across a list of favourites I used back then.
It also reminded me when beginning that project, there was no Google Search; you had Yahoo Search,Ā HotBotĀ and later onĀ Northern Light, butĀ AltaVista was the best.
Finding your way around was much harder, but luckily later on Google Search was there :)
So here is a sample of how static the web is:
- Better Threads For The VCL: link still works
- CodeGuru Utilizing Delphi Codes in VC Without Using a DLL: Ā link still works

- Delphi Corner Article – Waiting for Threads: link still works
- Delphi Programming Launching and waiting for completion: link still works (but now you require a user-id)
- Delphi Programming Queued Threads, but with a responsive GUI:Ā link still works (but now you require a user-id)
