The GNU Project

The GNU Project has an extensive website at http://www.gnu.org. You can download source code and comprehensive documentation for all of the GNU products, and even the tools used to produce the documentation!

You can also order merchandise such as T-shirts, stickers, and even a stuffed gnu. There is also pre-printed documentation. Note that all of this comes from the Free Software Foundation (see below).

The Free Software Foundation

The FSF is essentially a campaigning organisation, and it also sponsors the GNU Project. It can be found at http://www.fsf.org/. There is a free monthly newsletter - sign up on the site.
