For all of them - you provided some information about yourself, such as date of birth, country, age and the likes. Unlike other - services Hubzilla offers you the advantage of creating - <i>many more profiles</i>. That way you are able to distinguish between profiles targeted specially at everyone - (your public profile), your work mates, your family and your partner.<i>Think of your profile as the basic - information about yourself you tell other people.</i> - </dd> - <dt>Channel</dt> - <dd> - During the registration you created your first <i>channel</i>. Yes, besides several profiles you are able to have - several channels. This might be a bit confusing in the beginning, but let's clear things up. You already have - created one channel. You can use this one for the public, to communicate with people about every day life. But - perhaps you are an avid book reader and many people are bored by that. So you open a <i>second channel</i> just - for the book lovers, where you all can talk about books as much as you like. Obviously this is a new stream of - posts, with a new profile (... or new profile<i>s</i> ...) and completely different contacts. Some connections - might exist in both channels, but there will be some that are exclusive to only one of both. You yourself just - switch between both of them just like you would in real life switch when talking to people you meet on the street - or people you meet specially to talk about books. You can even connect to yourself, or better: to your other - channel. :)<i>Think of a channel as different spaces dedicated to different topics where you meet with different - people.</i> - </dd> -</dl>
