Interest in Solaris is growing so fast these days, and so much is being written about it. Here at Sun, we are publishing more information than ever before. Or perhaps I should say, we "purvey" more information. Some of it is traditional product documentation and articles that the Solaris technical writers author on special topics. Significantly, a lot of the new content is provided by the Solaris user community. On BigAdmin and the Sun Developer Network (SDN), the majority of contributions come from people outside Sun Microsystems. We are so pleased that a lot of content is coming from the user community.
And so much of the content comes in new forms, ala Web 2.0. There are FAQs and Best Practices open to anyone who wants to contribute. Many of these are wikis. There are blogs and videos. I feel like we are just providing the space for people to write, to purvey what they know about Solaris.
Then there is OpenSolaris.org. There are many communities with discussion lists and other forms of exchange. For example, the Documentation community has a wiki for collecting HowTo's, procedures for how to do things aren't written down anywhere else.
This blog will give you a place to go to get the latest stuff--books, articles, wiki entries, videos, training, blogs, and whatever else people dream up.
If there is good stuff that I neglect to include, please add a comment with the pointer. I want my blog to help people keep up with the latest information about Solaris, but even I probably can't keep up with all of it. Your help will be appreciated by all.
