Hello. Obviously, i'm new here. I'm unfamilier with blogs in general, but i've heard this place is good. So I guess i'll figure out what to do and say after being here a bit........

Sounds good. Maybe you can start by learning this is a forum.

You could blog here though if you wanted to.

There is a difference? Hm...... Well, I guess I really don't know that much at all.

Hi and Welcome SherlockRegirock

WrongPlanet is a forum, which means that everyone is equal (although moderators are more equal than others :) ). It means that you can visit TOPICS (called Forums) and read groups of messages (called Threads). If you start a thread, then you're called the OP (Original Poster). That's about all you really need to know (other than obviously; be nice to other people). If you feel unfairly victimised, contact a moderator (I'm one, but there's quite a few others and I'm sure they'll introduce themselves). You can contact people directly by PM (personal messaging) them.

As for blogs, I'll be happy to help you if you feel the desire to start one.

Enjoy.

Hi, I'm Landon, 28, and I live in Houston, Tx. I'm a freelance photographer/digital artist.

My life is very much devoted to exploring the many genres of self-expression and the pursuit of truth.

I believe in and support The Zeitgeist Movement (Venus Project). Check it out.

I love being out in nature (specifically around trees, rivers, and mountains).

Laughing is very important to me. Keeps you healthy. :)

I'm a huge sci-fi fan, especially TV shows like Stargate, Doctor Who, Torchwood, and Sanctuary (which is more like a sci-fi/horror hybrid).

I don't have an official diagnosis, but my mother has a friend whose son has AS, so she noticed it. My mother said she realized something was "off" about me when I was a kid, but just figured I was just "eccentric".

I've been obsessively researching AS so I might start seeing things in people now (if I even pay attention). I have Tony Attwood's book "The Complete Guide to Asperger's Syndrome", and it's been a fascinating read.

Hi, welcome. :) Blogs are like online journals or collections of columns on the Internet. Forusm are discussion boards where anyone who is a member can start threads, reply, etc. You can see some blogs right here on WP, too.
