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

Hello, All I Want For... that's quite a long name, if you don't mind me saying so. Can I call you something for short? Don't worry though, as it marks you out as one who appreciates the works of Half Man Half Biscuit, which can't be a bad thing.

Anyway, welcome to h2g2! I'm one of the Assistant Community Editors, so if you need any advice on anything h2g2 related, feel free to ask!

If you're looking for somewhere to go, you might want to try the welcome page for newcomers - http://www.h2g2.com/Welcome-Newcomers - or the Aces' homepage - http://www.h2g2.com/Aces - which has lots of interesting links. You can also click on the h2g2 logo in the top left corner, it will take you back to the front page, which gets updated daily with all the latest goodies.

On a more serious note, we're currently running a petition for Amnesty International, to tie in with the article on Torture at http://www.h2g2.com/A453296 - if you'd like to show your support for Amnesty and its aims, please sign the petition at http://www.h2g2.com/A455528 .

While you're here, it would be great if you could contribute to the guide - try searching for some topics that interest you, and if there are no current entries on those topics, why not write one? If you're interested, have a look at http://www.h2g2.com/writing-guidelines for an idea of what we're looking for.

Have fun!
