You have certainly come to the right place.  Take a look at the following
websites:

http://www.dataiv.peon.net/freebsd/index.html
http://www.freebsdzine.org/
http://www.daemonnews.org/
and of course:
http://www.freebsd.org/handbook

If you have any technical questions, the place to ask is
FreeBSD-Questions@freebsd.org.

Good luck!
