/dev/

Well, honestly I didn't know how I should call this part of the website. Tips and Tricks? Tutorials? Somehow nothing really explained what these pages are all about, that's why I chose the nonsense, Geek-like title /dev/.
Anyway, I'll post things for the bored surfer and myself as a personal reference in order that I don't forget all the things I've lernt, read, seen or listened to. ;-)

BTW: Unix-like systems like Linux often use the directory /dev (Device) for physical drives and partitions. /dev/null is used to write data to a nonexisting device. Somehow a black hole for data. ;-)

/dev/google

Google is the state of the art search engine, but it's not always easy to get indexed...
