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

That makes two of us. My closest brush was being online at the same time as him, on a couple of occassions. I always wanted to meet him, as I know a few friends who have, over the years. Unfortunately it was not to be. Anyway, i hope you will stay and enjoy this wonderful and varied place you have found, but I popped over to say welcome to h2g2
Just thought I'd drop by and make you welcome to the site.

Anything to do with Mr Adams, has got to be entertaining, and people that know how to relate...perfect...I lived in Hawaii for a time...loved it. let me know when you intend on making the voyage...I know all the good places.....All the best. -GTR

So anyway, GTR, as to trying to find intelligent life on this planet, well, I am sure that within the bounds of h2g2, you will come across some of it. I hope
Wanting to write articles on travel. Couldn't be simpler. have you done a search on anything you want to write about, just in case it has been done? If it has but you feel that you could add or improve on it, try contacting the researcher who wrtote the article, and have a chat about suggesting an update. They can then apply to update or add whatever you decide upon. If the person appears not to be around or active any more, then you can apply yourself. If you can justify it, chances are there won't be a problem.
Have you looked at the entries on writing stuff for the guide?.
I would point you towards this URL, which should hopefully cover most of your questions.
