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

Welcome to H2G2

My name's Bistroist and I'm one of the Guide's Assistant Community Editors (ACE's). We're a bunch of volunteers who roam this place trying to be as nice and helpful as possible, and meet and greet as many newcomers as we can.
If there's something you need help with, or just want a few links to some of the cool places in here, I suggest you visit our common homepage.

If you're not pleased with being a number, and would like to be something a little more personal, like a name for instance (TADAA!), go to your homepage and click on the "my details"-button, there you can set up a nickname to make your researcher idendity a little more personal.

I'm not sure if you know this already, but there's a welcoming message to all newcomers over here

Other questions you'd might like to ask? Try the "ask H2G2" and "How do I..."-forums

btw. In case you haven't noticed, the "Don't Panic" button in the top menu bar links to an occasionally useful help section.

Don't worry if you don't understand any of this, just stick this in your ear

Wow! Thank you - so much information!

I am kinda glad that you gave me the links cos I am feeling a little lost. This place is huge!

You're welcome, that's what I'm here for.

Yes, it *is* huge in here, but just take your time to look around, and if there's anything you need help with, feel free to ask.

Thanks.

Hello!

I'm new too. It's big in here isn't it?

Very - it is hard to know where to start. I love your home page!

*blushing* Well thank you. Liked your quote very much - big fan of Oscar Wilde.
