Hey there and welcome to H2G2. Hopefully you've managed to find your way around a bit by now, but if you haven't or you have any questions then feel free to ask, we don't bite <winkeye>
If you have a burning question about how to make a mobile from coat hangers or your computer has exploded then people will help you at <./>HowDoI</.>
<./>ThePost</.> is always a good place to check out. This is the H2G2 online newspaper and it comes out every week, full of tidbits.
If you want to brighten up your Personal Space or plan to write entries then a look in the <./>GuideML-Clinic</.> will be a good idea. Guide-ML is the code used to write pages on H2G2, it operates a lot like HTML.
If your ambition is to write for the Edited Guide, which is the main data base of factual entries then don't forget to read <./>Writing-Guidelines</.> and perhaps hang around in PeerReview for a while. The <./>FrontPage</.> features three new Edited Guide entries a weekday and is a great place to get some idea of what's going on on H2G2 and what sort of thing you can write about.
If it's fiction and opinion that you thrive on however, take a look at the things in <./>Writing-Alternative</.>.
Need to know about anything? Sausages? Forks? Buying a cat box? The search function in the top right hand corner (under the general BBC search box) is the thing to use.
Hope that's given you some things to look at for the minute. Any questions, ponders, requests...get back <ok>
