162. Where Is the Linux Stuff on the World Wide Web?
A: In addition to the Linux Documentation Project Home Page: http://tldp.org, there are many pages that provide beginning and advanced information about Linux.
These two pages provide a good starting point for general Linux information: Linux International's Home Page, at http://www.li.org, and the Linux Online's Linux Home Page at http://www.linux.org.
Both of these pages provide links to other sites, information about general information, distributions, new software, documentation, and news.
Documentation for kernel developers is on-line: http://kernelbook.sourceforge.net.
The tutorial, Unix is a Four Letter Word..., is located at http://people.msoe.edu/~taylor/4ltrwrd/. It is a general introduction to Unix operating systems and is not Linux specific.
Additionally, here is a certainly incomplete list of Web pages devoted to Linux:

Searching for Linux on Web Search Engines will provide copious references to Linux Web sites. Try:
*Yahoo! http://www.yahoo.com/ *Altavista http://www.altavista.com/ *Google http://www.google.com/
Google also has a Linux-specific section at http://www.google.com/linux/.
