+Some Notes on Using a Tilde Server
+----------------------------------
+
+If you're using a tilde server, it's probably because you want to interact
+socially with others on the same server. The obvious solution is to use IRC,
+since most tilde servers are probably part of the tildeverse IRC network: see
+https://tilde.chat
+
+But there are other ways to interact. First you might want to `ls /home` to
+check who else is on the server. Maybe you know some of them! You can use
+`mail(1)` to send them some mail. If you don't know them, try using finger(1)
+to see who they are. You'll get interesting stats on the user, such as when they
+last logged in, and from where, what shell they use, and their... Plan? What is
+this?
+
+A plan is a short message you can specify for users who finger you. create a
+a file at `~/.plan` and tell other users a little about yourself!
