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

My name is Feisor and I am an ACE (Assistant Community Editor) here at h2g2. It's my job to welcome you to the site and hopefully show you around a little. I AM a real person, not an automated reply not an automated reply not an automated reply .

Welcome to h2g2 – not just the friendliest on-line community but an incredibly huge, living, breathing guide to Life, the Universe and Everything. It’s compiled by researchers just like you and it's something YOU can take part in. You can write entries on all manner of subjects, and if it's something you think would look good in our Edited Guide (where all the best research goes), you can submit it to Peer Review Take a look at the <./>writing-guidelines</.> for more information on that.

I hope when you get to know us a little better you'll open your personal space and tell us a little about yourself - but there's no rush - and it's not compulsory

We ACEs are volunteers here to assist new researchers so if you have any questions please don't hesitate to ask.
You can leave a message on my space just by clicking on my name at the top of this message or by hitting the reply button below - it won't hit back (usually).

I have made a "Hints and Links for New Researchers" page at <./>A719840</.> - if you go there it will lead you to all sorts of places which will help find your way around and get to know this wonderful place. It should keep you busy for a while

Oh, and don’t forget to bookmark not only your space but the H2G2 <./>FrontPage</.> - it’s a great way to stay in touch with what’s happening and leads to all sorts of corners which you may otherwise miss.

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



Enjoy!!
Have fun!!!
and above all !!!

Hello there!

I appreciate the welcome! Most forums/communities just let you figure things out for yourself... this one's already winning the friendliest community award!

I've already browsed the pages here, and it's quite an intriguing corner of the bbc site... if only it were portable (and came with a Babel fish).

I'll update my personal space when I can snatch a few moments... normally I look at this place at quiet periods at work (shh! don't tell anyone!). Writing pieces to come later...

Again, thanks for the friendly advice, can't wait to explore this place a bit more!

Cheers!

Mr_Jeffers

As it says above, you're welcome

There's no rush with your space but if you could just open it with "Hi" or somesuch you can always change it or add to it later

the closest we come to a babel fish is or - one for each ear?

Take your time exploring ... this place is huuuuuge - the New Researchers link that I left you should help.

If you have any questions about hootoo (as we call h2g2) or need any help just drop me a line here and I'll get back to you asap

Have fun
