	3	+XWiki is the best tool to organize your knowledge. A //wiki// is organized in a hierarchy of //pages//. You can create multiple wikis, each with its own set of pages.

7		-Ever since I first got started with computers some 40 years ago, system administration and infrastructure has been what caught my attention. If it was not on the Amiga 500 how to cram as much as humanly possible onto one single 3.5 inch DD floppy-disk, then when I got started with Linux, it was about building the OS as I got involved in for the ROCK Linux project. If you have never heard of it, do not worry. As I jumped around between distributions, when I joined Red Hat in 2006, it became Fedora and RHEL.
	5	+XWiki can be used as a knowledge base (support, documentation, sales, etc.), for collaborative workspaces or even as a complete intranet.

14	14
15		-I have done my fair share of that, so now I will simply leverage this wiki to document things as and when I run into them. So while I learn, I will put it here in distinct pages, like a miniature Wikipedia of the crazy things Sirius got himself into.
	13	+Use the {{displayIcon name="add"/}} button above to //add// more pages to your wiki and create the //hierarchy// that best organizes your content.

	15	+Use the {{displayIcon name="home"/}} breadcrumbs located above the title to //navigate// inside your pages. It's easy to get lost in a big wiki without them.
