Thanks for taking the time to check us out. Gather.com is a great place to keep your friends in the loop and meet some interesting new people. If you like what you see, sign up now by clicking the orange button below or the green "Join Today" button in the upper right-hand corner of any Gather page.

 



Gather's different from most social networking sites, because you get to know people through their words, not just their images or static profiles. Plus, you can interact directly with anyone by commenting on their work or connecting to them. And you'll earn Gather PointsTM just for being active in the community - points you can exchange for gift cards or charitable donations.

 

To get started, visit the Gather homepage, where you'll find today's most popular content. You can also browse articles, images, videos, groups, or people by clicking the tabs at the top of the page. Go ahead - start exploring!

 

We hope you enjoy Gather enough to share it with your friends. For a limited time, we're offering a $20 Borders Gift Card when you get at least 5 friends to join with you. Invitations must be sent through the Gather invitation process to be eligible. Other restrictions apply.

We're glad you do, Toni!
Jeff Cusson, Sep 14, 2007, 9:35am EDT

shana s., Sep 14, 2007, 11:12am EDT
I JUST joined the other day!!
Dana P., Sep 14, 2007, 5:21pm EDT
I was already a Gather member before I saw it on the FrogPond so I'm glad to see Gather taking advantage of Frog Pond to get the word out!
April J., Sep 15, 2007, 12:12pm EDT
Yep, I was already a member too! :)
Heather A., Sep 15, 2007, 3:25pm EDT
There are so many interesting areas to check here -- looks like it will take some time. I joined the Food Essentials group and want to check out books and music as well.
Susan K., Sep 15, 2007, 5:56pm EDT
Ilike it!
lisa d., Sep 16, 2007, 11:00pm EDT
Thanks to everyone who has checked us out so far! I did notice a concern someone wrote in the Frogpond about posting their family pictures on the site. When you post anything to Gather - an article, image, video, or profile - you choose who gets to see it. You can limit a picture you upload to be available only to people you designate as "family", or a work-related video only to your "colleagues". You set the rules, so you're only sharing as much as you want with the people you want. I hope this helps!
Jeff Cusson, Sep 17, 2007, 12:10pm EDT
BzzAgent rocks!

Welcome to Gather, Toni! Looks like you've got the image upload function figured out. Now, its time to explore! The homepage is usually a pretty good place to start (just click on the "home.gather.com" link in the upper left-hand corner of this page). There you'll find some of our most popular categories. From there, just browse for articles, images and videos that interest you and Join the Conversation!

If there's something specific you're looking for, you can either user the Search box at the top of the page, or search by "tag" simply by typing the tag or keyword that interests you in the green box at the bottom of the left-hand column.

If you still need a helping hand, our Gather Guides - members like you who have been around for a while and have volunteered to show people around - are a great resource. You can talk with them directly by going to
Jeff Cusson, Sep 24, 2007, 1:38pm EDT
Sorry - posted too early! You can find the Gather Guides at guides.gather.com.
Jeff Cusson, Sep 24, 2007, 1:45pm EDT
I, too have been a Gather member for a while. I am glad to see Gather leveraging tools like BzzAgent though...the more the merrier!
Heather Montanaro, Sep 24, 2007, 9:56pm EDT
I was already a Gather member as well, I like the site, it's like a facebook for adults. I like getting email updates when my Gather contacts upload photos and other information.

Chantel W., Oct 4, 2007, 4:06pm EDT
also already a member - i had to go to dial up for the past 9 months or so, and my internet use was really limited - i'm hoping to spend more time with gather - i enjoyed it a lot, except for the craziness with the old gather members hating on the new members from bzzagent - what was that about? - but gather is entertaining, informative, and hope for good things for all of gather
Prudence C., Oct 5, 2007, 9:23am EDT
