Linux Blogs, Communities and Forums
From STNY LUG Wiki
What's new? Where should we look to find answers or to read something interesting concerning open source projects or linux?
Beyond googling for a specific technical term, or looking at wikipedia concerning a particular topic, where should one look to find information?
The main information I'd like reviewed here is the Name and location of the blog/web-site, how large or active the blog is, what's covered by the blog.
