So, yes, the squealing and running around like crazy last week is TOTALLY warranted. I've had a week now to play around on Ravelry, and I LOVE it! I was pretty sure it would be good, since people have been gushing about it for months now (at least, that I've been aware of) but things can get over-hyped quickly, right? Take the average summer blockbuster, for example.
But no grain of salt needed - I love it! It's not a hassle to use, and this is coming from someone who's not reeeally computer friendly. For example, I hate the Microsoft habit of having all sorts of nice, easy one-button commands for formatting, etc. but put in the most obscure places; it's all very easy, you just have to know where to look. Drives me nuts! None of that here in Ravelry though! It makes logical sense moving through lists of patterns, yarns, whatever, or organizing your own information. You can tell that the people who set it up really thought about it and making it useful. And it's easy to meet people and network too. Have groups and forums for just about everything under the sun! This is one of those tools that really does like up to its hype!
In short: Ravelry - highly recommended! Go get yourself on the list!
