Welcome to SlashBoot dot Org
Welcome to SlashBoot dot org. Articles on the site are grouped into categories, which will be near the top of the page somewhere, depending on which site theme you are using. Within each category, you will find the articles pertaining to that topic. In case you were wondering, the name SlashBoot is connected to the old Linux convention of having boot time files like the kernel, in the /boot folder on the root of your hard disk. So it's all to do with the beginning of a Unix-like experience.
The core subjects of the site are concerning Unix-like operating systems, mainly OpenBSD which is my own choice. However, standards compliant web development and peripheral issues, such as security, are also featured to some degree. Feel free to contribute by posting comments and as more features become available to visitors, join in the discussion through whatever means are at your disposal.

These are the top ten individual words used in search engine queries that bring visitors here. The same rules used in the Top Search Engine Queries, applies to these calculations. There are often similarities between these results and those for complete queries, but some variations and words that don't appear in the complete query list are commonplace.

18 weeks, 1 day, 9 hours, 49 minutes and 38 seconds.
Database uptime:

The statistics on this page are calculated on demand and can cover logged entries over periods between 24 hours and 28 days (configurable in the system admin interface). Search engine stats only involve the fleets of Google and MSN search engine domains from around the world, as these are the most common search engines to bring people here.
Where slashboot.org is used in the search queries, such as site:slashboot.org or queries to Google's cached pages, those terms are omitted from the analysis. Care is taken to ensure that only unique data per unique visitor, is used in the analysis and calculations.
