Best Web Resource For Linux Help?

mikeswi asks: "I made the big switch to Linux from Windows about six months ago (SuSe Linux 10.0). Overall, I am very pleased with Linux. Every now and then, I run into a problem that I cannot puzzle out on my own. I am absolutely not a Linux expert and have no idea how to do certain things that expert Linux users take for granted. If a determined Google search turns up nothing, I plead for help at LinuxQuestions and someone there usually does a good job of helping me out. What web sites or other resources do Slashdot readers use, when they run into a Linux problem they can't handle themselves?"

...you might not of heard of: Google! Seriously, it is a search engine that allows you to type in a subject, or a question, and it in turn provides you with related subject material or actual answers to questions. You might want to keep this under your hat though, as we might not get good questions like this again if people know they can EASILY search for information on their own.
