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

Hi Ian,

I'm Jonny, and I'm an ACE here at h2g2. <./>ACEs</.> have the job of looking for people on h2g2 and officially welcoming you to this incredibly big, fun and addictive website!

To help get you started, I've compiled a page of links at A599330.
Or alternatively there's The Post Page of Useful Links at A660304 - <./>ThePost</.> is our weekly newspaper.

You can add your own entries by clicking on the "Add new entry" link from your space. h2g2 entries can be written in plain text or using GuideML, which you can find out more about at the <./>GuideML-Clinic</.>.

Attached to each entry is a conversation forum, here you can talk to people about the entry, and make friends .
One of the busiest forums is <./>Askh2g2</.> where you can ask anything you want!

If you want to know how to do smileys, you can find out by clicking on this one (or any of them!).

If you have any questions/comments about h2g2, or just want a chat, click reply and I'll see it later.

Don't Panic,

Jonny

*looks at Dark Mistress, with a look that says 'Don't think I've met you yet...'*

I've just a bit to add...

If you want to be able to tell very quickly when someone has posted a conversation to your space, you can subscribe to your space, and the conversation will show up in your most recent conversations list. Interested? Good Here's how you do it...

Down below the main portion of your space, but just above your journal, there is a set of three links. They look like this (except they are centered, and look like links):

Click here to see more Conversations
Click here to be notified of new Conversations about this entry
Click here to stop being notified of new conversations for this entry.

If you click on the center one, any new conversations will become visible to you the next time you go to your space. (You can subscribe to other people's spaces and to entries, too, and it works the same way.)


(OK, so it's my favorite hobby horse... but it *is* very handy, if/when you put enough on your space that you have to scroll down a lot just to se if there is anything new posted to it...)

Cheers for the advice Amy.I also would like to ask if you could check out my posting on whats wrong with America and check if its acceptable.It is my opinion,but it seemed to upset the young lady who replied.
please advise as i'm still feeling my way around

OK, I will

Though I'm a bit ... I'm in California, so it's a quarter to 2 in the morning... (Yes, I know that's early to a lot of people here, but not to me, not anymore!)

Oof... I knew there was a reason I hadn't wandered over to that thread before...

Well, no one yikesed you, so that's good... And your apology was well written I haven't talked with Mandragora ever, so I don't know how she'll respond, but it should be OK...

And if I made no sense just now, may I plead tiredness?

Sorry Amy I didn,t realise you were American,I have never met an American person before other than to say hello.My statements about America are based on television and newspapers.They are or were not meant to be hurtful to individuals more an indication of what I feel about what the goverments are doing.No offence meant
you sound lovely
lol Ian x.

I don't take offense that easily

*waves*

How're you doing?

Hi Amy hows it goin' in the states,where was it you said you lived.Ianmac.

I'm in California...

I'm doing OK. You?

Hi Amy ,just been lookin' at a world globe to see where California is exactly.You got LA.and San Francisco and I find it difficult to comprehend that I can actually speak to someone livetime who lives in places I only see on the films or "movies",what time have you got there,here in gretna green Scotland it is now 9.03pm 30th April.ianmac

I'm 8 hours behind you, so it is now 1.11... Which means my lunch is over and I must go back to w**k...

I get a copy of WYOMING WIDLIFE magazine every month from a friend,but most of all I want to go for a beer with Homer down at MOE's ,I absolutely love the SIMPSONS.I loved GENE SCHUMAKER too who along with David Levi,discovered the comet shumaker,levi9 which impacted Jupiter.ianmac.
