Where is an appropriate place to post tutorials?

    I was considering posting up a few small Java tutorials I am currently working on, mostly aimed at beginners. Where might I put these, if there is anywhere suited ? Many thanks.

    Latest Blogs/Articles would be the best place I suppose. :)

    Ok, great - thanks for that. Am I correct in thinking that I can only post links in that thread to items I have published elsewhere? Is there somewhere that I could just write up a small tutorial as its own thread - or is it better to just post links in that thread you mention?

    Hmm, I don't know. You have two possible options - you may have a better idea yourself.

    Option 1.
    Post a link the blogs/article sticky and start a separate thread with a link to the same blog/article. I'm asking people to do both for now to see which option works better.

    Option 2.
    Post the tutorial here in a new thread and use the feedback and resulting discussion to fine-tune your tutorial before it gets published somewhere else.

    Ok, thanks very much I will consider the options!

    Would you mind going with Option 2? A tutorial is going to promote questions, it would be nice to give them a place to ask them.

    That's fine, I am more than happy to go with option 2! Questions are always good, to help others learn and reinforce my own knowledge!
