1. **Read:** You can treat this site like any other. Browse, and follow interesting links. A couple of hints:
- **web:** A [[TWikiSite]] is divided into webs; each one represents one subject, one area of collaboration. You can reach any web from the links in the upper right corner of every page.
- - **topic:** Each web is made up of hyperlinked topics - [[TWikiPages]] that appear in your browser.
+ - **topic:** Each web is made up of hyperlinked topics - [[TWikiTopics]] that appear in your browser.
- **What's new:** Visit [[WebChanges]] in any TWiki web to see what other people are discussing and what's been added most recently.
2. **Create an Account:** To be able to write new content on this site, you'll need to create an account for yourself. It's simple, and only takes a minute: just visit [[TWikiRegistration]] and fill out the form. This will also create your personal home page.
3. **Write:** If you have something to say, speak your mind! Anyone can change or add to anything they see written in a TWiki topic. You can edit a topic from within your browser, using [[TWikiShorthand]], a very simple markup language (you can also use HTML if you like, but you'll usually find you can get the same results more easily with [[TWikiShorthand]]). To contribute:
- click the <code>**[ Preview Changes ]**</code> button at the bottom of the page to see what your topic will look like (use your brower's <code>**Back**</code> button if you want to make changes), and finally
- click the <code>**[ Save Changes ]**</code> to save what you did.
4. **Do you find this...scary?!** Anybody can do anything! That's not how things are usually done. It's...uncontrollable. And yet, collaborating in the Wiki way works! Try it out for even a couple of minutes. Take a look at [[WikiCulture]]. (And then, with TWiki, you can define fine-grained [[TWikiAccessControl]], based on users and groups, whenever and wherever you feel its necessary, across a site, a web, or page by page, if you like. And there's also full revision control that retains all changes, for good measure!)

6. **Create a link:** To link to another topic, start by editing an existing topic.
- To create a link to a topic that already exists, type its <code>**JoinCapitalizedWords**</code> name (topics are automatically linked if they are [[WikiWords]], names composed of two or more words with initial capitals, run together).
- To create a link to a page that does not yet exist, make up and enter a <code>**NeverBeforeUsedPhrase**</code>. You are encouraged to include [[WikiWords]] in your content, for others to fill out later.
- Support: An active, helpful development community keeps TWiki support and development constantly moving forward.
