Hi Rob,

I've thought for about 10 minutes on how to answer you properly and to make you feel at home but your intro gives me just enough information to think that you'll fit right in here without that :)

The coke machine is in the corner on the left, please do not leave empty pizza boxes lying around. The management is out right now, they're probably golfing so it's just us chickens here.

Probably the best place for information about yourself is the 'about' box on the profile page.

I don't know how many accounts are created every day but I think that if they all posted an introduction we'd be reading introductions all day long, I guess that's why they made that 'about' box.

A good place to have a look before you do stuff here is to look at this page: http://ycombinator.com/newsguidelines.html and to read this: http://www.paulgraham.com/disagree.html it's interesting stuff.

best regards,

   Jacques

That was brilliant; unsure if the intent made it to the proper destination however.

I share your concerns.

What are you talking about?

hi Rob,

I think what he meant to say was

'we agree with you that everything is information'

but we'd like to add to that:

'not all information is hidden, some of it is in plain sight, you just have to read a bit between the lines to get at it.'

From your answer below it was divined that this second part is still in your future, hence GGPs writing.

greetings,

    Jacques

Hi Jacques,

I've read the links, I've put information in the about field.

Not exactly sure what you are referring to, do you want to keep it to yourself?

Best, Rob

hi Rob,

I humbly ask you forgiveness for my inability to express myself clearly and directly in the English language.

It is not my mother tongue and it is very well possible that the confusion between us is grounded in this fact.

best regards,

  Jacques

Hi Jacques,

Thanks, I already feel welcomed. :)

This is a nice community. I'll read those YC/PG links.

Best, Rob
