Oh, I totally agree. That's actually how I learned this stuff. Years ago there was a company called Slicehost that was very similar to what Digital Ocean is now. It had a treasure trove of great documentation and articles. Eventually they were acquired by Rackspace and folded into the Cloud Servers line. Great company though.
