2016 HELP: The HGProjects revealed!

The HGProjects revealed!
Updated 9/10/2016

HGProjects is a simple, searchable name for activities aimed at encouraging the use of the Hypergrid.  These activities include promotion of activities on the Hypergrid, improvement of the software infrastructure, development of entertainment and entertainment support, improvement of onboarding support, and other things that will make the Hypergrid more attractive to more people.

• I just made up that name to provide a simple, searchable name.  
• Note that you can search this blog with the search bar, upper left corner
• The Hypergrid needs more people.
• The HGProject is my name for efforts aimed at encouraging the use of HG
• It is a bit like a Chamber of Commerce for the hypergrid.
• Except we don't yet do overall planning and organization.
