Which Web sites for technical information on Windows hosting?


Hi everyone - I work for Microsoft. Used to be a regular participant on Web Hosting Talk a few years ago (then moved over to Europe at that time). I've been doing some work recently that has led me back to the community here to ask for some input on where administrators of Windows-based hosting services go to find technical information.

How often might you use the following two Web sites?

1) [Hosting Solutions on TechNet]

2) [Windows Hosting Discussions]

I've just re-registered a new account so I have to do the five post thing before I can insert links, otherwise I'd to a direct link to the two above. If you're not familar with them, just do a Web search for those phrases and the sites will be at the top of the list.

Are there other Web sites that you use regularly for technical information on operating Windows hosting services? Or do you mostly just enter a phrase in Google and temporarily use the Web site/s that come up in the search results?

Thanks,
Matthew

If I've got an issue I need to solve my first stop is usually Google. Technet and Experts Exchange figure highly on my list after that, in fact alot of the good articles that Google digs up are technet ones or KB articles.

Then there are sites for particluar services, like Exchange where I usually go to mesexchange.org or the MS Exchange Team blog.

I use Google which usually leads to Technet articles. MSFN is also a good site.

I use google mostly. But searching knowledge bases and bug reports for whatever software is in conflict is what usually helps troubleshoot the most. Searching wiki is always helpful.

Me too, google is the first thing to do to solve a query.
Do you have a particular topic in mind? or just in general.
