The "about PF" page may be right under my nose, but I can't find it.
Is there a PF "About us" page?
- Thread starter anorlunda
- Start date
In summary, the "about PF" page, which can be accessed through the "ABOUT" link at the bottom of any page, discusses the origins of Physics Forums as an extra credit project and its evolution into a thriving community of science discussions. The page may need to be updated and made more visible on the main page.

I just read it. This myriad of science discussion and this beautiful, friendly community is all because of an extra credit project??
Greg, I’m glad you were no good at physics!

Yeah Greg, the story and the stats are both impressive, congrats.
You should make it more visible, like next to the word HELP on the main page.

Accessible via the ABOUT link at the bottom of this page (and presumably any page here).

How can an "About Us" page be used to improve user experience?
An "About Us" page can improve user experience by helping users understand the purpose and background of the website they are visiting.
