Today is my first day on gaia and about 5 mins after joining a had a friends request from winky554. It made me feel really special.
I have found that the gaia tour is really helpful as I have only seen parts of the site when I was shown it by my friends -various.jams- who invited me. There is so much more than what I had though there would be.
