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

Welcome to h2g2 - I noticed your posting to my Time etc article and when I checked your space noticed that you hadn't been ACEd - so here goes

My name is Feisor and I am an ACE (Assistant Community Editor) here at h2g2.

it's got a lot of the basic background and how-tos that you will need - a good place to start

Both are great places to begin your journey .

And finally, the editors of our own newspaper The H2G2 Post have made up a page of links - you can find it at http://www.bbc.co.uk/h2g2/guide/A616718 and then you can read The Post

Well - that should keep you busy for a while I am sure that you will love this community as much as we do There's lots of things to see, clubs to join and people to meet - please don't be shy - just jump right in - this is a friendly place. But be careful - it can become quite addictive - believe me I know

BTW - if you would like to give yourself a name (numbers can be a little impersonal - and hard to remember ) you can do so by hitting the "preferences" button on your screen. If you are viewing in "goo" (dark blue background) the button is at the left hand side nestled in the goo - don't know where it is in alabaster (white background) cause I'm a goo fan - but I am sure that you will find it there somewhere

Yes, give yourself a name!
You are not a number, you are a free man (or woman, or small fury creature from Alpha Centauri or whatever)
I quote a lot, you may have noticed.
