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

Welcome to h2g2 My name is deackie and I'm an ACE (assistant community editor), one of the merry band of volunteers who meet and greet new researchers and provide any assistance if it's needed.

This place can seem overwhelming at first, can't it? What a great place to discover by accident though. My advice to help you find your feet is to have a look around to get a feel of the place and join in some conversations to meet people. If you haven't already looked at it, check out the Welcome page http://www.bbc.co.uk/h2g2/guide/Welcome it's a good place to start. Another good way to get a feel of the community is to look at other researchers' personal spaces. If you click on the 'Who's Online' button you can click on any of the researchers' names and visit their space.

Smileys are a way to brighten up postings and guide entries. The smiley list can be found at http://www.bbc.co.uk/h2g2/guide/Smiley or you can click on any smiley and it will take you to the code

Hope you enjoy the remainder of the weekend too. I bet it's not quite so drizzly and grey where you are.
