I have compiled here a list of links to many useful sites which can give you more information regarding what you might be looking for or would only be happy to know more about. I have been particular in collecting more links to "Linux sites" than Windows specific sites. But still you may find some which could lead you to some programming tips, articles etc,. in Visual Basic, VC++ and so on. I will be adding many more links as I come across in near future.
The links have been classified into the following categories.
