New project - LinuxStart!

    For some reason, recently, I often come across articles about startups and descriptions of new startups.
    So I decided to lay out my idea. If there is a desire and an opportunity - criticize.

    The fact is that once I noticed frequent and repeated questions on the Linux forums. Moreover, these questions were very similar. These are newbie questions about the system. And I also noticed feedback about Linux from users who had previously used a different OS. So in these reviews there was the same sincere ignorance of simple things for experienced Linux users. And I decided that it would be nice to collect all the information on these issues in one place and state it as simple, accessible and understandable as possible.
    And I also wanted to show all the power of Linux, customized desktops. Those. how it looks when everything is set up as it should. It is to show and explain, and not just surprise the beauty of three-dimensional interfaces. And all this with specific examples of using Linux programs for specific tasks.

    And then my idea took the following form:
    Make LinuxStart Project! - A site for beginners in the world of Linux and Open
    Source technologies .
    The site will have various materials on the topic, namely:
    - news
    - articles, reviews, press releases, success-stoories, etc.
    - review flash videos and even related videos
    - help
    - presentations
    - photos and screenshots

    Material on the site will be submitted in an interactive manner, i.e.
    some web 2.0 technologies will be used:
    several bookmarks per page, downloadable materials, online
    help, application tables with descriptions.

    Moreover, the site will have a real modern web 2.0 forum - vanilla.

    Also, the site will have tags and a tag cloud, a system for temporarily hiding and
    highlighting content, comments, etc.

    But the most interesting:
    The site will use something like a demo zone, i.e. a special
    main platform on which content will be loaded as
    needed (using AjAX).
    The site should be as lively and dynamic as possible.
    The main thing is to provide the user with exactly the information that he
    wants to see.
    Those. the engine will “track” what links the
    user is following on the site and give him the most relevant material.

    What has already been done:
    - There is a domain (linuxstart)
    - Some blanks (engine (Immerse), design)
    - The

    Content command is at the filling / writing stage.
    The site itself is still empty.
    If someone has a desire to take part in the project - you are welcome!

    The author of this project is Rinaldus. He first posted the idea of ​​creating this project on www.linuxforum.ru and I suggested that he work on the project together.
    And thanks to his idea, this article was born.
