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

Welcome to the wonderful world of h2g2 . My name is Nigel and I am an <./>ACE</.> (Assistant Community Editor). This is not an automated message, I’am a real-life person sending you a friendly welcome .

H2g2 has lots of information on the ‘living breathing guide to life, the universe and everything’, started by the famous ‘Douglas Adams’ (click A157349 for more info) many light years ago. There is also lots of friendly community chat which is worth joining in .

Firstly, your space: This is where your personal introduction can be viewed by other members of the community. It enables them to find out a bit about you before posting to your conversations. You can write a few lines to begin with if you prefer, until you get used to the site . Your space is also where you access your conversations, write new journals, as well as doing lots of other things. Click A308215 for further advice on creating your personal space and ‘setting the wheels in motion’ as they say .

Okay, you have filled in your introduction, now you are saying “Where do I go from here?”. The best place to start is <./>FrontPage</.>, (there is also a link to it from your space) which has a wealth of information including <./>ThePost</.> which is h2g2’s fortnightly newspaper, a recommended read .

Enjoy looking around and do not be afraid to click on anything, it is the best way to learn . It is daunting to begin with, but , you will soon get used to h2g2 and find your way around. A useful link is A719840 which has lots more useful information.

Another good place to visit is A8468742 which does what it says in the title ‘h2g2 in a nutshell’.
