h2g2 The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy: Earth Edition

do you put that little cute mouse smiley on every post?

oh the is mock GuideML you will probably see it around sometimes. people who use GuideML regularly will sometimes use mock GuideML in conversations and on entry pages.

yeah i am mouse so is how i sign off most of my messages on here.

So what can you tell me about Glasgow?

Welcome lml and theearthguide.

thanks for the welcome Doc

it is Scotlands biggest city, it grew up around the river Clyde and the shipbuilding industry. The central portion of the city is laid out in a grid system. there is an underground with twelve stops known as The Clockwork Orange. there are lots of museums and giant pedestrian precincts and shopping centres. there are two main overground railway stations (Glasgow Central and Glasgow Queen Street) 3 main universities and numerous colleges. erm cant think of much else but i think theres an entry on it somewhere. * goes to look*

That's a pretty good description there, do you mind if add it to my website?

yeah sure, just make sure i get credit for it ! heres the guide entry on it A3859220 . hope it helps.

That's just the sort of thing I'm after. The major cities of the world but the small ones count too of course.

well im moving to Dundee in a few weeks and its a fairly tiny city, i will write you a wee thing on it once i have settled in shall i?

looking forward to it

you will have to wait about six weeks for that one! so what else are you looking for on your website?

I added your entry. Well at the moment I'm looking to start out with major cities and now that I got quite a few listed I have to research each one at the library, write descriptions for each one and then the hard part is find people online to contribute about that city. I think adding contributions by people that have actually lived in those locations is what will make my site special.

I'm not sure if I want to expand onto other things yet the site is still in its infancy.

fair enough. seems like a resonable idea.

ok theearthguide i am hungry and sleepy but i hope you get the information you need for your website. enjoy h2g2 and be warned that it is addictive! night.

good night bud

I forgot to mention that if you have a picture or two of Glasgow please send me a link to it so I can add it.
