ghs1974 - New Member Suggestions

SUGGESTIONS:

The first thing that you need to do is Get A Login (follow that link). This will allow you to contribute, and to get contact information for your friends.
If you have any problems, email me, and I will set you up. Tell me what login name you want (keep it simple, maybe just first name, something that friends will recognize you by, first-come-first-served). Your login name will also identify you automatically in page Versions as you make edits. --Grant
The next thing that you should do is to tell other classmates how to contact you. Go to Directory, and add your info in the first empty line at the bottom of the table. If you're having any trouble, look at New Member Instructions.
The next thing that you should do is to make a page for yourself.

Don't be scared by the idea of web page editing. This is really easy, unlike most web publishing. You don't need to be an expert.

Go to Members. You should be listed with square brackets, and no spaces. If you want to change the name, edit it on the Members page first, leave the double-square brackets so it is a link. Don't put spaces in the link name - they will be automatically added before each capital letter in the actual page name. Save the Members page. Then follow the link in square brackets to create your page. Look at other peoples' pages for examples. Put some stuff about yourself (see Survey Template and Hints for some ideas). Only registered users are allowed to edit pages. Let me know what you need.
Update your grad and reunion attendance status on the Class List
Look at other Members pages to see what your friends are up to.
Help spread the word. Contact any other classmates that you can, and encourage them to join us. Give them some assistance, or refer them to others. Most people need a little hand-holding at the beginning.
As time goes on, there will be lots of interesting things happening. You should stay informed. The best way is to go to User > Preferences in the toolbar on the right. Set the Change Notifications to Once a Day if you like to keep informed more immediately when things happen, or Once a Week if you don't like to be bothered so much.
You might want to make pages about particular subjects, events, hobbies, cars, grand-kids, music (this means you, Glenn), or whatever. Put a link to your business, charity, or organization. For example: Thirtieth Reunion and Twenty Fifth Reunion. You can create a new page from the Page > New button at the top right of any page. Link it to your own member page, and anywhere else it makes sense.
The year 2009 is here. Get the info about the Thirty Fifth Reunion.
