For a newcomer, this can be overwhelming. To get yourself situated, do a couple of things:

#Read the [[Bootstrap Community Playbook]] which explains how we work
#Scan through the wiki and pick a few key subgroups that look interesting to you and join them. When you do, drop the Subgroup Lead a note introducing yourself.
#Attend a bootstrap meeting or a subgroup meeting and start getting to know your fellow bootstrappers 
#Once you attend a meeting, you will get an email to create your Bootstrap ID and Bootkarma account. Once you do, you can offer your time on Bootkarma and trade with other bootstrappers.
