So, we are wondering why any of you lot joined the jitty in the first place :-P What got you interested? It would be cool to get an idea of the range of reasons that people have signed up, so post your excuse :-P

I joined after I was told about it by a friend. Sounded interesting so I thought I'd give it a shot. There's a range of stuff to talk about and a group of people to talk with. So I stayed. And here I am. :D

What about the rest of you?

Hunter came to my school and talked to a group of us. He told us all about the Jitty and showed the website. He mentioned about going to the cinema for free if you write a review and told us the benefits of joining the Jitty.
He comes to our school once every 2 weeks on a Wednesday and talks about internet safety and stuff about the Jitty. He gave us forms to return and I decided my chat forum name.
I was a bit nervous about the Jitty at first but as soon as my account was made, I went onto the forum and I even forgot to introduce myself. :lol:
I've wrote a lot film and book reviews and attended meetings. it's a lot of fun and a great experience. :D

Life is full of randomness!

I just find the forums fun and friendly and it's nice to talk about random stuff... I am a bit of a message board junkie but this ones the best of all of them because it's not so specific, like about one game or one actor or one film...

Well, yes. If Ben hadn't have told me about the Jitty I wouldn't have told countless other people, which have in turn got even more people involved.

well, there was a big bang, and Udi was created :D

Hunter has been fairly careful in who he's gotten involved with the site, with advertising mainly being word of mouth. Many people in "higher up places" scoffed at the idea that we could be trusted to run a website and that it should be left to the professionals. We prove them wrong.

So by assuming like minded people tend to be friends.....

I also got a free mousemat, so i thought it would be rude not to join!

I've been here longer than Hunter has...

I originally got dragged into it to design the site logo and just stayed along for the ride.

I like the fact that I can actually see how much the Jitty has moved on since it was first put live.

And I've been here longer than Hunter AND Mojoses (not that I'm turning this into a one-up on you kinda thing ;)). Got into the whole thing when Gutho sent a bunch of us over to Oadby and Wigston borough council to ask us on our opinions of the youth sites around the country (and world). Ended up staying. Still here. You're not rid of me.

Pretty much the end ;)

I must admit, Oadby & Wigston really did have a stroke of genius when they started this project up, and it has "evolved" quite a bit.

well originally hunter came to our school to help us with our peer mentoring so that we could add a section on the web page. but over time i've just gradually joined in with different parts of the site. It has been a great way to make freinds!
I too shall be hoping to do my work experience with the jitty, should be good. :D
