Welcome to Rosetta Code! I'm Mike, and I noticed you created an account.

Some quick things you should be aware of:

  • Template:Mylang -- Helps you show what languages you're familiar with, and helps us become aware of skills with languages we haven't seen.
  • Category:Unimplemented tasks by language -- A place to find tasks missing solutions in various languages.
  • Special:Webchat -- Logs you into #rosettacode on the Freenode IRC channel. Not usually the most active communications medium, but occasionally helpful.
  • Rosetta Code:Village Pump -- A general Q/A and discussion area.
  • Rosetta Code subredddit -- Gets pulled into the planet. RC blog posts also show up there as text posts.
  • Rosetta Code planet -- Aggregates RSS feeds from some RCo users' blogs, the official blog, and the subreddit.
  • Rosetta Code:Finances -- For most of Rosetta Code's history, expenses have been paid out of my pocket. I can't afford that much longer, and so you can see the state of Rosetta Code's finances, and how you may help. If you enjoy or are excited about the site, please consider reading through it.

Sorry for the boilerplate; it can be a bit difficult giving an individual greeting to each person. That doesn't make the welcome any less sincere! I'm always looking forward to seeing how your involvement on Rosetta Code will benefit you and other users.
