The Human Internet
About. com was founded in 1996 with a simple premise, that people are the best Guides to the Internet. We have built on that belief over the past decade. Today, when you read an article on About.com, you are tapping into a powerful network of 500 Guides -- smart, passionate, accomplished people who are experts in their field. Our Guides have written books, appeared on national television and won many awards in their field. For instance, our Headaches Guide was recently recognized as a top patient advocate by the National Headache Foundation. Our Table Tennis Guide is a two-time Olympian and our Pediatrics Guide is a board certified Pediatrician & Fellow of the American Academy of Pediatrics.

About Guides live and work in over 20 countries and celebrate their interests in hundreds of topics. Guides are selected for their ability to provide the most interesting information for users, and for their passion for their subject and the Net. The selection process is rigorous -- only 10% of those that apply graduate to the live service. Below are some of the most important criteria by which they are chosen:

High level of knowledge/passion for their topic
Appropriate credentials
Keen understanding of the Web "experience"
Commitment to creating informative, actionable features
