Kat Brennan replied on February 26, 2008 20:18 to the question "How do I become a TeeBeeDee Founding Member?" in TeeBeeDee:

You can become a Founding Member simply by completing your profile and making it public. We'd prefer you use your real name and photo (like we do) but that is not required for founding membership. We reserve the right to limit Founding Members and will post on the site in advance of the cut-off date, but for now, everyone is invited to become a Founding Member.

Kat Brennan replied on February 26, 2008 20:17 to the question "What does TeeBeeDee do with my personal information?" in TeeBeeDee:

We take privacy very seriously. We do not sell, rent, share, trade or give away any of your personal information, unless required to by law. We hate spam even more than you do.
If any of our members are found to have violated our Terms of Use by sending unsolicited commercial messages to other TeeBeeDee members, we will investigate and take action immediately. If you receive spam from another TeeBeeDee member, or if you receive a message that is harassing, abusive, or contains a violation of our Terms of Use, please forward the message to legal@TeeBeeDee.com.
Here's a link to our complete Privacy Policy.

Kat Brennan replied on February 26, 2008 20:17 to the question "How do I change or delete a Question I've asked?" in TeeBeeDee:

Please email us at feedback@tbd.com with the following information: which question you want to change/delete, and what you want us to do. We'll take it from there.

Kat Brennan replied on February 26, 2008 20:16 to the question "Why can't I respond to my own Question?" in TeeBeeDee:

The system was designed this way, to encourage quick interaction. If you want more back and forth, we suggest you start a discussion rather than ask a question.

Kat Brennan replied on February 26, 2008 20:16 to the question "What is the difference between Q&A and Discussions?" in TeeBeeDee:

Q&A is a great place to get quick, finite, snippets of information. Discussions are for more open ended discourse. For example, if you wanted a great place to buy shoes online, you'd ask in Q&A. If you wanted to know what to do about dealing with a contractor, you'd start a discussion.

Kat Brennan replied on February 26, 2008 20:15 to the question "How do I answer a Question?" in TeeBeeDee:

Just click on the orange "Answer this question" button.

Kat Brennan replied on February 26, 2008 20:15 to the question "Why should I ask a Question?" in TeeBeeDee:

Because TeeBeeDee members represent millions of collective years of experience in real life. We're full of answers!

Kat Brennan replied on February 26, 2008 20:14 to the question "How do I ask a Question?" in TeeBeeDee:

Click the "Ask a Question" link on the bottom left side of any Interest page (use the left-side navigation from tbd.com to access Interest pages). Enter your question in the form provided.

Kat Brennan replied on February 26, 2008 20:14 to the question "What is the TeeBeeDee Quickee?" in TeeBeeDee:

The Quickee is a fun little interview designed to tell our community a little more about you. We'll be changing out the questions every once in a while so if you have any suggestions on what we should include, drop us a line at feedback@tbd.com.

Kat Brennan replied on February 26, 2008 20:13 to the question "Why won't my postal code register in my Profile?" in TeeBeeDee:

TeeBeeDee can currently accept only postal codes that are 7 characters with no spaces and locations outside of the US are not displayed by metro area on profiles. We're working on this problem and expect to have it fixed soon. Entering your postal code is not required to become a member of TeeBeeDee.

Kat Brennan replied on February 26, 2008 20:13 to the question "What is the difference between the Experience and Interests areas of my Profile?" in TeeBeeDee:

You can use the "Experience" field in your profile to list the areas of work and life where you've got some good credentials (or valuable experience in the School of Hard Knocks). For instance, if you're an accountant, you'd list accounting there. Or if you've dealt with an aging parent, completed the master gardening course, etc., this is your place to say, "I know something about this!"
Interests are those things you're exploring, but you're not necessarily the "go-to" person on the subject. This might include pop culture, antiques, or water skiing.
The experiences and credentials of our members are what support the collective wisdom of our crowd. This is the place for you to share what you know with the rest of us.

Kat Brennan replied on February 26, 2008 20:12 to the question "Why fill out the "My Experience" field in my Profile?" in TeeBeeDee:

All over the site, people like you have accumulated a lifetime's worth of knowledge and are trading their insights and experiences. Whether you're a work coach, a world traveler, a music buff, a doctor, or a passionate gardener, you've got experience to share. This is a simple way to strut your stuff and share your credentials with other members.

Kat Brennan replied on February 26, 2008 20:12 to the question "How do I make my friends appear on my Profile?" in TeeBeeDee:

Go to your friend's profile and click the link under their photo that says "add as a friend." Your friend will receive an invitation from you and they will be automatically linked to your profile if the invitation is accepted.

Kat Brennan replied on February 26, 2008 20:11 to the question "How do I share my Profile with others?" in TeeBeeDee:

As long as you make your profile "available to all" on your Profile page, anyone can see it. You can also copy the URL in your browser's address bar at the top of your Profile page and paste that into any document or email. Anyone online can click on that link and go directly to your profile. For example, see http://www.tbd.com/profile/BettyRay.

Kat Brennan replied on February 26, 2008 20:11 to the question "Who can see my name?" in TeeBeeDee:

We suggest you use your real name as your user name. However, if you don't use you real name, it will never be displayed on TeeBeeDee (see our Privacy Policy).

Kat Brennan replied on February 26, 2008 20:10 to the question "How do I change my user name?" in TeeBeeDee:

Contact us using our on-site feedback form, and state your wish to change your user name. Please include your registered email address, and the user name you wish to change to. We will send you an email confirming the change once it's been done.

Kat Brennan replied on February 26, 2008 20:09 to the question "How do I change my basic account information in my Profile?" in TeeBeeDee:
