Hi Mary and welcome to Zoobird! First order of biz: find some groups you like and join. Second, upload some photos to your album. Have a look around and use the friend feature to connect with people who seem interesting. Anything you write in your Zoobird blog winds up on the homepage, too - col 1 row 1, just like a newspaper. Here's a gift from my local community garden: an urban mandala. Enjoy and I look forward to reading your thoughts here. Best, Michael
