This topic is for the posting of online biographies. Eventually, adding and updating your online bio will be automatic, but until then, post them here and they will be added by hand. There is a fairly simple procedure to follow for creating your bio. Firstly, open a new e-mail document, address it to mikeg@well.com, make the subject line "bio", and fill in the following information: Real Name: Login Name: E-mail Address: And then write your personal biography information below it! Some tips for what to include might be your pastimes, your favourite conferences/topics on the Spring, and whether you host any conferences here. Then, hit send and it'll fly out to it's destination! You will receive an e-mail notification when your bio has been put on-line!

I'm Mike, and I'm based in Brighton, England. I'm a second-year physics undergraduate, so I spend a lot of time immersed in equations and such like. Happily, I get a small amount of time to indulge in liberal arts, which I think is probably where my heart is. Last term, I took a course in religious psychology, which was incredibly good. This term, I am taking "Critical Studies in Art", so I'm going to be wandering in a black roll-neck jumper, and "pontificating" about the "meaning" of the "abstraction" in that "piece" *wink*. However, my main outside interest is in virtual communities, and I am involved in establishing a community/conferencing system in Brighton, in conjuction with Virtual Brighton (http://www.brighton.co.uk/). Therefore, I am looking for people to discuss the ups and downs of community life with - our project needs inspiration! I am also helping develop a social structure for a new on-line project called "Farrawae". There is a Farrawae conference on the Spring, to which you are all most welcome to check out. It's a bit quiet at the moment, but precisely what it needs is - people! - and input!

I really liked your Brighton link, Mike--I'll definitely peruse it in-depth if I'm ever planning any travel there! It's very comprehensive.
