Subject: Introduce yourself
Hello Google Page Creator Users-

In an effort to create a more cohesive group experience, I thought it
would be good for us to introduce ourselves and give some of our
background ( we are now close to having 6000 members!). Feel free to
include your technical expertise, your location, your native language,
etc. I'll start.

[ Having this information will help us write our answers. We'll be
able to take into account people's language preferences, knowledge of
tech terms, etc. ]

Name: Regina
Location: Mountain View, CA (I'm in Ireland right now)
Native Language: English

Sports: Soccer and Water Polo
Favorite Vacation Spot: I haven't found one yet, but I absolutely
love South Africa.

Cheers,
