Just over the last week, there have been these separate 'Learn Linux 101' posts at LXer:

- This very one, found at http://lxer.com/module/newswire/view/225065/

- 'Learn Linux, 101: Manage disk quotas', found at http://lxer.com/module/newswire/view/225014

- 'Learn Linux, 101: Create partitions and filesystems', found at http://lxer.com/module/newswire/view/225013

- 'Learn Linux, 101: Maintain the integrity of filesystems', found at http://lxer.com/module/newswire/view/225016

And going backwards in time to the end and middle of the Fall season of 2015, there were these pair of updated 'Learn Linux 101' posts:

- 'Learn Linux, 101: Customize and use the shell environment', found at http://lxer.com/module/newswire/view/223269

- 'Learn Linux, 101: Configure hardware settings', found at http://lxer.com/module/newswire/view/221274

Not yet posted at the time of this writing is the direct link to the most recent 'Learn Linux, 101: A roadmap for LPIC-1', found at http://www.ibm.com/developerworks/linux/library/l-lpic1-map/index.html



As a simplified alternative for each update that rolls out, why not consider posting the single link to the IBM developerWorks 'Learn Linux 101'-series meta site http://www.ibm.com/developerworks/library?series_title_by=Learn+Linux+101 as opposed to directing readers to each individually separate 'Learn Linux 101' post ??

A distinct advantage of this simplified alternative is that viewers can get a purview of the entire series of 'Learn Linux 101' pieces at a single glance (the most recent pieces happen to be contained within a single webpage.) Viewers would thus be more likely to easily jump around from one subject to another, depending upon their own interests and relevance.

@vainrveenr: Did you know that LXer accepts and welcomes article suggestions from its readers? You can directly post your link here:

http://lxer.com/module/newswire/stories/add.php

It is my personal experience that reader-posted article links work well here. If you find something or have an idea that you think will be interesting to other LXer readers, just go ahead and post it.

On my part I'm trying to keep a New Year's resolution I made to find and post on LXer at least one interesting Linux/FOSS article per week during 2016.

While including the link to the entire series makes sense, not everyone will be interested in every one of the articles, so posting articles about the individual ones still makes sense.
