According to the kernel documentation (file usb-help.txt) you can
start with the following links for information about usb:

(from linux/Documentation/usb/usb-help.txt)

For USB help other than the readme files that are located in
linux/Documentation/usb/*, see the following:

Linux-USB project:  http://www.linux-usb.org
  mirrors at        http://www.suse.cz/development/linux-usb/
         and        http://usb.in.tum.de/linux-usb/
         and        http://it.linux-usb.org
Linux USB Guide:    http://linux-usb.sourceforge.net
Linux-USB device overview (working devices and drivers):
                    http://www.qbik.ch/usb/devices/

The Linux-USB mailing lists are:
  linux-usb-users@lists.sourceforge.net   for general user help
  linux-usb-devel@lists.sourceforge.net   for developer discussions

I would recommend to use the Linux USB guide and FAQ at
http://www.linux-usb.org as a starting point.
