How are h2g2 and The Hitchhikers Guide to the Galaxy related?
h2g2 is the Earth Edition of The Hitchhiker’s Guide to the Galaxy. It’s not full of helpful hints about how to avoid the Ravenous Bugblatter Beast of Traal or how to mix a Pan Galactic Gargle Blaster, but it is full of thousands of entertaining and useful Guide Entries about life on Earth and how to live it. In other words, h2g2 is taking the fiction of The Hitchhiker’s Guide to the Galaxy and turning it into fact.
