The solution to most technical problems, are only a few search engines away if you know precisely what you are looking for. I’ve found the helpful sites are those capable of explaining difficult concepts to average users while providing simple technical details. Useful information comes from experienced writers who know what it means to roll up their sleeves, get down on their knees to squeeze into that tiny server rack in a cold data center, set up or replace those workstations,  spend hours configuring and managing servers first hand along with years of trouble shooting in the field or remotely helping clients experience real world problems.

Network technicians know if all you did was read about it or confined yourself to a computer lab then you really don't know squat.

“Don't babble me with your techno speak, talk to me in English and show me how it’s done!”

Microsoft Small Business Server, Exchange Server, Terminal Server ( 2003 and 2008 versions) and computers in general have kept me professionally employed for the last twenty years. Having been a journalism major in junior college, early on I found that application development and writing code was similar to writing a story in an abstract way allowing to increase my English and Spanish language skills to include Visual Basic, ASPX,  vb.NET, SQL Server, Visual FoxPro, IIS, Visual Studio, Photoshop, and Flash MX.

With the help of colleagues we hope to be added to the list of useful  sites.
