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

*floating in, in her usual vague, elf-like manner*

To tell you the truth, it was the conversations and the user pages (pre-BBC, including off-site pictures) that caught me at h2g2...

I think it would be a good idea to have several different 'topics' going on, and also some way for the participants to introduce themselves ('user pages') - and, most of all, a really good main page - attractive, user friendly, and making it easy for you to find the answers to any questions my might have... and I do like the '5 busiest forums' or the www.h2g2.com/info page...

...sorry, haven't checked the other answers, someone might have mentioned this already...

Cheers Archangel

Indeed - I think the user spaces are really important. I think people need to have some kind of presence/place they can be found... or stuff gets a bit scattered (plus the nosey part is fun). Can't have off-site pics unfortunately

Well, neither can we, post-BBC, but that's not stopping us!
