=Free Software Standards===This website (wiki) is run on mediawiki software, the same software that runs the amazing [http://www.wikipedia.org wikipedia.org] website. It is not meant to duplicate content there, but rather to extend it with a local flair and purpose. By the same token, it is here to build on the effort of the [http://www.gnhlug.org Greater New Hampshire Linux====Apache====MySQL====PHP====Perl====Python==Users Group] and the [http://www.blu.org Boston Linux Users]
=System Administration===Samba====Webmin==This website is a project of Greg Rundlett and all the contributors he can single-handedly tie down and force to think globally and act locally ;-) If you want to be part of a global free software movement, then you can do so right here. Register, and add your questions, requests, and information to share.
=Graphics===GIMPWhat is here?====SodiPodi====Dia====Gallery==Well, for starters, you should check out the special links to the left that tell you what current events are going on, what pages have changed recently, and some of the other Special Pages.
=Content Management===MediaWiki====Tiki==Most of what is here should derive from experience and the various domains of expertise of all our contributors. The overwhelming impetus behind the effort to take this project from idea into practice is the fact that individuals in the United States are at ever greater risk of losing their opportunity for free technology at the same time that free technology is becoming so amazingly abundant and easy to use. The idea is that by building a community, it will create synergies that make a sum greater than the value of all its parts.
=Email====SquirrelMail==To add to the fun and excitement, there is now a '[http://www.freephile.com/sitebar/ Bookmark Server]' available. The bookmark server allows you to have all your 'favorites' (aka bookmarks) available all the time from any computer. Simply create an account, import your current favorites, and off you go. The interface even allows for the traditional desktop 'drag and drop' operation to be carried out in your web browser, making it very convenient to organize your favorites. Plus, you can share your bookmarks, or keep them private according to your desire.
=Web Browsing===MozillaMajor Topics====FireFox==[[Free Software for Windows]]This is about how you can enjoy great free software while barely lifting a finger. More details are in the [[software section]]
=Database=[[Legal Issues]]==MySQL====PostGres====phpMyAdmin==Some of the current business and legal issues that affect your rights as a technology consumer, or developer. Stuff you should be aware of even if [[IANAL]]
=Search=[[Books To Read]]==Mnogosearch==What to read, and where to get it when you just want to curl up with a 600 page manual (Just kidding, all kinds of good book reviews can be found here)
[[Technology]]Geeks helping geeks. There are so many problems to solve every day, and usually somebody has already been there and done that. Once in a while when you solve a problem, it's nice to share the elegance of your solution. Or perhaps you've laboriously hacked through a forest of questions on some computer quest; you can share the essence of the matter. Heck, we'll even throw in an opinion once in a while all for free. See the [[Software Reviews]] section for information on various comparisons such as Apache versus IIS or Microsoft Internet Explorer versus Mozilla HOWTO articles and more can be found in the 'help' section in the left navigation panel.   == What is Not Here ===== Wikipedia ==Templating=[[wp:Wikipedia]] is the main wiki in the world, and this is just a local instance of the same ''software''. ==Smarty=Lot's more Help and Guidance ===[[Wikipedia:Manual_of_Style|The Manual of Style]] and [[Wikipedia:Help:Editing|Editing Help]] pages found on the wikipedia site will tell you everything you need to know about good form and practice on contributing here. ----  [http://www.rundlett.com Rundlett.com] is where you will find Greg Rundlett's blog and other "non-technical" stuff == More Topics ==I've decided to expand this wiki into more categories and topics. I don't have a good list yet of those categories, but I'm diving in with an old SEO article that I wrote and want to preserve.=== SEO ===[[SEO Optimization Techniques]]
