Looks interest, but it is only collection of links everyone can find 
using search engine. For ne one helpful blog should add some value to 
the community as personal articles, ever comments

1) The world has plenty of sites already catering to linux newbies. I 
just googled "linux for newbies" and got 330,000 results.

2) Why can you possibly help if you yourself are a newbie? It's just the 
blind leading the blind.

3) Your difficulty in grasping simple concepts like how to write an 
email reaffirms point 2 in my mind.

4) Your grasp of the English language is at best mediocre. This will add 
another barrier to conveying information to newbies.

my recommendation is that you forget your website and devote that time 
into learning linux better yourself. Spend time on various forums, and 
read read read.

A final point I'll note is that this is a CentOS list, aimed at helping 
people with CentOS. It's not a place to spam with ads for your website 
unless they are CentOS specific.

How are you helping newbies? There is no structure at all.

Thanks!
