 ====== Welcome to Moonbeam Town! ======
 I'm your admin, you can call me Jack or Wraidd, and I've set this place up as a private corner of the internet for friends and friends-of that have a vague interest in not selling their entire life profile to our megacorp overlords.  Think of this system like the BBSes of old -- a collection of services intended to foster community with like-minded people.

 Here's what I'd like to implement in the immediate future:
-  * **Mastodon** -- a Twitter-like microblogging service with a small-ish but thriving community
   * [[Invitations]] -- while I can generate accounts for people, it'd be cool if you could just invite your friends directly.
-  * **Web space** -- I'd like to provide web space for everyone, like a Wordpress or something, but I'm still reviewing available options
   * Others TBD!

 That's all I can think of!  I'm mainly on Matrix -- feel free to say hi (matrix:@wraidd:moonbeam.town) or just hop into the Town Commons and introduce yourself to the other users!  And if there's something you'd like to see on this service that isn't yet offered, I'm happy to entertain suggestions!
