Over the years and wearing many hats of Software Developer/Designer/Architect, System Analyst, IT Administrator for Windows & Linux, systems and networks, the world wide web of technical resources is undoubtedly one of my best allies. The best resources are most often from personal websites or blogs of others in the same job role as you try to accomplish the same thing, with the same piece of software and a very similar configuration.
Accordingly I figured I would share these useful tips with everyone else & make my compendium of bookmarks and open resource.

Within my IT Department we use a Runbooks wiki resource to organize and store all important information about all equipment and systems we administer. While this site is not truly a runbooks for any specific device or instance, when completed it will comprise a very useful knowledge base for all tools and technologies I work with.More formally, Runbooks are: A runbook is a close-to-hand document (physical or electronic) containing information needed to configure, operate, monitor, administer, troubleshoot, repair, and restore an IT service. Dependencies, interrelations, failover, and backup information should be recorded as well.
