Why StackOverflow?
StackOverflow has been around for many years and it has been really a powerful tool for my every technical role. So i decide to make this site available for my use in terminal. For my current role I get to work with server Maintenance, Monitoring and Backup. This will be a great search tool when working with remote servers and you don't have to open a browser to search for errors fix ideas.
