Front Page Linux: Announcement & Launch
Front Page Linux (FPL) is a News, Tutorials, Articles & Videos website brought to you by the Destination Linux Network.
FPL's mission is to provide a one-stop shop for written media for Linux & Open Source content on the web. FPL is also very different in the structure because FPL works with the Open Source philosophy in that anyone in the community can contribute to the content of the site.

Software Spotlight:
SoX - the "swiss army knife of sound processing programs". SoX is a command line utility that can convert various formats of computer audio files in to other formats. It can also apply various effects to these sound files, and, as an added bonus, SoX can play and record audio files on most platforms. So if you need to combine audio, resample, extract portions of audio or just about anything else - SoX is a progream for you to check out.

Gaming on Linux
Trailer Trashers
One of the great aspects of gaming is it can give you a break from reality and even offer some silly ridiculous fun. That's where games like 'Trailer Trashers' comes in.
Now this game even though it has some cartoon-ish like graphics is mature theme with some of the cartoon violence so don't play it with your kids. However, it's a ridiculous premise with lots of fast paced actions to enjoy with your adult friends.
