What you need to know about the ZUWR system


Handle: A web handle is what other internet users refer to you as. It can be your real name, but it doesn't have to be. Think of the truckers and the old CB Radios. "Breaker Breaker this heres the Duck you got a copy on me Big Ben come on?" Duck and Big Ben are examples of handles. My handle online is HaTcH. Other people's are like Grey Wolf, Tilly, Koneko, and Jammer. If you don't have a handle thats pretty wierd, so be creative and make one up. On IRC, handles are also known as 'Nicks', short for nicknames.
Website Title: This is the title of your website, which is pretty self explanatory, or atleast I think so... Anyway, an example of this is like "Liger's Union," my site, "Grey Wolf's Lair", "Creative Insanity", "Generation Zi", and "Blue Sky Height." If your website doesn't have a title, you should get one.
URL: Also Known As, Uniform Resource Locator, or simply web address or link. This is how you tell other people on the internet where to find your site. The URL must start with http:// and not contain any spaces. Terminology: URL stands for Uniform Resource Locator WWW stands for World Wide Web HTTP stands for hypertext transfer protocol W3C stands for the World Wide Web Consortium IRC stands for Internet Relay Chat
ID: This is probably the reason you are actually at this page in the first place.. Anyway ID is a unique string that you will refer to your site as in the webring's code. For Example, my site is called "Liger's Union," I chose lu as my site identifier. If there was a site named "Big Ben's Brilliant Boats" perhaps the webmaster would choose 4b or bbbb for his site identifier. It doesn't have to be an abbreviation of the title either. For example, Momonga's site has an ID of momo. So when you are picking an ID keep in mind that it is how the webring script knows what site you are at, and what content to return. (such as the prev and next buttons)
Email: This is an address where other members of the internet can contact you at. They are usually in the form of some-string@some-domain.some-extension. They also cannot have spaces, just like the URL. Email is quickly replacing traditional paper or snail mail, and is almost as instant as a telephone.
... What? If you think its funny I got that deep into it, remember who was the one that clicked the '?'? If you had to click the question mark about Site Title, I would only expect you knew almost nothing about it! So there. Hah.
