- it's all about getting work done effectively, especially when we are not in the same place (6UL)

- Newcomers should read the WikiHomePage, then RecentChanges, and then http://community.cim3.net/wiki/ (6XY)
- Wiki words (upper case camel words) support automatic links throughout the site (6XZ)
- To link to sites beyond the wiki it's important to type the http://colab.cim3.net (6Y2)
- Mouse over a link and look in the bottom left corner of your screen. You'll see the URL. (6Y3)
- Do the same for a "purple number" - mouse over and then look to the left corner of your screen - you can send this "location link" by right mouse clicking on a purple number - then do a copy short cut - now the URI is on your editing buffer - if you open a test message - you can do a paste - the person receiving the email can click on the link and they'll be exactly at this site - (6Y4)
- By providing the link - you maintain the important context of the information (6Y5)
- important when editing to leave a space in front of the purple number (6Y6)
