Hi,

I'm the guy who makes this site run. It's just me!

Most common questions people ask:

Q. Why did you start this site?

A. I've had a long standing fascination with agony aunt columns. I hoped to bring them into the Internet age and harness the wisdom of 1000s of different people.

Q. Is this your full time thing?

A. My time goes in for free as a part time effort, and all the moderators are volunteers :-)

Please, tell your friends about us. If you have a blog, why not link in to the site or even your column?

Thanks!
