This webpage, H2G2, is for people to discuss life, the universe, and everything. So we write our entries about the Philippines and saucepans, whatever it may be, but often as not we forget why we're even on this website to begin with. We're here because we all love Douglas Noel Adams, the brilliant man who, years ago, quite suddenly died of a heart attack on an exercise machine in Santa Barbara. We're all fans of Hitchhikers Guide to the Galaxy, Dirk Gently, the Meaning of Liff, Last Chance to See, whatever it may be, it's due to Douglas that we're all writing here. And that's what we forget, that the purpose of all this is to write actual helpful information for the rest of the world to read. Douglas loved technology, and he made this website as a way of gathering all sorts of info about - well, anything, really. So I propose that, when we sit at the keyboard and start typing in our advice for how to fix a bionic elephant or tips on how to survive in New York, we thing first "What would Douglas Adams write?" If we all did that, H2G2 would be a much better place.

"The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy is a wholly remarkable book. It has been compiled and recompiled many times and under many different editorships. It contains contributions from countless numbers of travellers and researchers."
