Introduction

This site is all about the collective known as Join Me, for Joinees old and new alike. It's intended to be an archive of information about it, from historical entries to every day occurances, from a glossary of terms to a collection of ideas.

Eventually it will also serve as a directory of who's who - for now, you can search for people by name, here.

It will also tell you what's going on where, and when - like a calendar. See Join Meets coming your way.


Because it is interactive, and not uploaded by any one person, it's hoped that everyone interested in the development of Join Me (both past and future) will help add further details to create a comprehensive guide to a collective that is over 10,000 people strong worldwide. You can find out how to do this by reading the help pages.
