Open Source - Where to start?

I have been using open source since college, studying Computer Science, and I have released a number of projects over at Github. But up until now, I have not contributed in any other open source project (except maybe that one time in college where we were required to do so...)

In this note I will document my journey into contributing to the open source community.

Wet your apetite

Here is a list of communities/places/actions I have found over the web where I get my interest in open source all fired up.

  1. Reddit's r/opensource - To see what's the latest in the community.
  2. Github Trending - To browse through interesting repositories in Github.
  3. Stackoverflow - To see what other developers are confused about... and sometimes to answer questions.
  4. Open an account at Github.
  5. Read the The Conscience of a Hacker
  6. Read on How To Become A Hacker
  7. Install and play with a linux distribution (Ubuntu is a good starting point for me) Ubuntu Homepage
  8. Publish Notes at Github
