Linux Questions: Bulletin

In the LQ Status Report, I'd like to reflect a little bit on the job we're doing at LQ.  Do you think there's an area we can improve or should focus on?  Is there a new site we should be looking into developing?  Do you think you have a constructive comment for us?  We want to know.  http://www.linuxquestions.org/questions/showthread.php?t=469540 is available to post your thoughts on where we are today and where we should be going.
   Last month I announced the LQ Job Marketplace, which allows employers to post available positions for Linux, Open Source and programming related jobs.  I am happy to be able to follow up with the news that multiple job positions have already been posted.  If you're looking for a job in the field, head over to http://www.linuxquestions.org/jobs and see if any of the available positions are for you.  You can also add http://www.linuxquestions.org/syndicate/lqjobs.xml to your RSS aggregator to be automatically notified of new positions.
   Inspired by a thread posted to the Website Suggestions and Feedback forum, we've started the LinuxQuestions.org Frappr map, which will allow you to get an idea of the geographic distribution of your fellow LQ members.  Visit http://www.linuxquestions.org/questions/showthread.php?t=468210 for more information on how to view the map and add your location.
   Did you know that LQ now has its own search engine plugin for Firefox?  Available at http://www.linuxquestions.org/questions/showthread.php?t=465281 the plugin will allow you to search LQ from the convenience of the Firefox search bar.
   A reminder that a great way to help your fellow LQ members is by helping answer threads with 0 replies.  http://www.linuxquestions.org/questions/lqsearch.php?do=noreplies always contains the latest list and http://www.linuxquestions.org/syndicate/lqnoreplies.xml will allow you to track them via RSS.  Test your knowledge and help a fellow member at the same time.

Linux Questions: Bulletin

I am proud to announce the addition of the "LQ Job Marketplace", which will allow employers to post available positions for Linux, Open Source and programming related jobs. The LQ Job Marketplace will allow postings for full-time, part-time, permanent, temporary and contract positions.  Visit http://www.linuxquestions.org/jobs to go directly to the LQ Job Marketplace or goto http://www.linuxquestions.org/questions/showthread.php?t=462359 for the announcement.
  LQ ISO recently hit 2,000,000 downloads (and a very short time later is already well over 2,100,000 - which is a good indicator of the growth rate it's currently seeing).  Visit http://iso.linuxquestions.org/ for all your Linux ISO downloading needs.  If you have any suggestions on how LQ ISO can be improved, head over to http://www.linuxquestions.org/questions/showthread.php?t=460617 and let us know.
  A reminder.  If you enjoy the LQ Podcast you can vote for us at Podcast Alley ( http://www.podcastalley.com/one_vote2.php?pod_id=777 ) and help us get some exposure.  Never listened to the LQ Podcast?  Tune in to http://radio.linuxquestions.org/ and let us know what you think.
  The LQ Wiki is really starting to pick up and has a dedicated core of members making regular contributions.  Did you know you can help?  Any member can contribute content to the LQ Wiki under the GFDL or Creative Commons license.  We're trying to build the largest general Linux knowledge base on the web and we can't do it without you.  If you've never been to the LQ Wiki, point your browser to http://wiki.linuxquestions.org/ and join in.
