Hitchhiker's Guide to Hitchhiking: the Project Help, FAQ, Search help, User accounts, About, Why this wiki, Goals and non-goals, Policies and guidelines, The Guide's Hitchhikers, Help wanted Hitchhiker's point of view Logbook The inspiration to this project came from the Wikipedia project and the marvellous book of Douglas Adams - the Hitchhiker's guide to galaxy. The idea is to use the open Wiki system to gather information the same way Wikipedia does to result to a guide similar to the imaginary Hitchhiker's guide to the galaxy is in the books of Adams: a guide that knows it all and is allways up to date. Every hitchhiker is not only a user but also a possible contributor - a correspondent of the guide with the best possible first hand knowledge. This is not a work of a single mind, it's a work done by all the hitchhikers for the benefit of all the hitchhikers. Every visitor can add her / his knowledge and edit the existing pages to make them even better!
