$username,

I'm happy to announce that yet another LinuxWorld has been a success. LQ recently visited London for LWE UK and had a record tying mod turnout. It was great to meet those of you that were able to attend and I look forward to being able to meet more members at future events.
The LQ Wiki continues to grow and now has almost 2,885 articles. If you've never been to the LQ Wiki, point your browser to http://wiki.linuxquestions.org/ and take a look. We're building the largest general Linux knowledge base on the web and all content is licensed under an Open Source license. Don't forget that, since it's a wiki, you can help by adding and editing content. Share your knowledge with the Linux community - contribute to the LQ Wiki. We use the same software as Wikipedia, so contributing is quick and easy. If you're unsure what to write about, http://wiki.linuxquestions.org/wiki/Special:Wantedpages contains a list of most wanted articles.
Now that LQ Bookmarks is using an integrated LQ login, are you adding your bookmarks? If not, http://www.linuxquestions.org/bookmarks/ has instructions on how to easily do so using the provided Bookmarklet (it's as easy as drag and drop). LQ Bookmarks is also great for getting a quick snapshot of what's currently going on in the Linux community.
Did you know that LQ has a reviews section that includes Linux distributions, books and magazines? Head over to http://www.linuxquestions.org/reviews/ and take a look. Let others know what you think by adding a new review or product, or just browse around and see what your fellow LQ members think. The LQ Reviews section has 2,228 reviews for almost 600 products, but with your help we could have much more.
