“The volunteers and staff of Linux.com have always known that
Linux.com is based on a vibrant forum of IRC discussion. It’s how
we get our work done, and where we turn for help. In fact, anyone
can drop by #linux.com and see the site team at work, or drop by
#lcft and see the staff in more relaxed moments, or drop by
#linuxhelp to get answers to their questions.”
“So at Linux.com we’re launching a new program, starting at
LinuxWorld Expo in August. We’re bringing you Linux.com Live! This
will be a regular series of scheduled events, based on IRC, aimed
to help the beginner master the Linux topics you need to
know.”
“Want to know how to install Linux? How to configure X? How to
customize your window manager? How to set up a home network? These
are just a few of the topics we’ll be presenting in upcoming
Linux.com Live! events. Sometimes reading the manual isn’t enough.
Sometimes you need to be able to ask questions, talk to a live
person. So fire up your favorite IRC client, and join us on
#linux.com-live!”
