[/url][url=http://tutorials.linux-noob.com]http://tutorials.linux-noob.com how could you forget :) .. a place of pdfs of some of the tutorials made in the forums

[anyweb]

doh, you are right

 

and there is also

 

[/url][url=http://bot.linux-noob.com]http://bot.linux-noob.com (for the RSS bot on #linux-noob)

[anyweb]

I also forgot to add that linux-noob.com has a dedicated bot on IRC (thanks Flukex), this bot will peek linux-noob.com's RSS feed once a minute and if a member makes a new post in the 'how do i' section, it will be linked within one minute flat on the live IRC channel (EFNET server, #linux-noob)

 

this is a GREAT feature of this site and usually gets answers fast for our members

 

and this is a FYI (for your attention)

 

you see those PIPS beside your login name ? if you wanted to know what they mean, and how many=how you are doing here then have a look at the attached screenshot
