Your full name will be displayed only to your direct contacts. For contacts 2 handshakes away from you, your name and first letter of second name will be displayed. All others will see only your first name.

Please, read more in our Privacy Policy.

The 'Username' is for additional areas of the site like forums.
We ask you for your Email and Password twice to be positive that we have these vital details correct.
And finally we get you to type in the characters in the shaded box to protect our system against fraudulent use by computerized hackers/bots and other near-do-wells.

P.S. You will see the term 'Handshakes' throughout our site. We use this term to describe connections between two people. For example, if Joe knows Sue, then we say that Joe and Sue are one handshake away. Now if Joe knows Mary, but Mary and Sue do not know each other, then Mary and Sue are two handshakes away - Mary handshakes Joe, and Joe handshakes Sue. This can then carry on through 3 and 4 handshakes.
