 New users of federated social networks may, at first, be a bit confused about simple things that seem so obvious on Facebook and Twitter. People coming from another Federated network to pump.io may find it hard to locate people, etc.

 Other people than me have also written about getting started on Pump.io. Check these out if you don't like what I have to say:

   * WeatherBot: want to know the weather in a city? Just follow weather@hub.polari.us ([[https://hub.polari.us/weather]] and send it messages containing "City Name,Region" to get the weather in that city. For instance, you could send "Jefferson City,MO" to get the weather in Jefferson City, Missouri, USA . . . or "Uppsala,SE" to get the weather in Uppsala, Sweden. Try it out. This is still a beta-bot. Lots more information is at [[http://polari.us/dokuwiki/doku.php?id=weatherbot]]

 You, my friend, need a CLIENT. Pump.io is just a network protocol - you need something that speaks the language. Here are my suggestions:

   * **Desktop Clients**:
     * I use Linux and sometimes Mac, so I like Pumpa (https://pumpa.branchable.com/) and Dianara (http://jancoding.wordpress.com/dianara/). You can even get clients in Windows. Check out the full list of desktop clients at https://github.com/e14n/pump.io/wiki/Clients

   * **Mobile Clients**:
     * I use Android most of the time, so I recommend getting either Impeller (https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=eu.e43.impeller) or Puma. Both are available from the F-Droid store. Impeller is also available on Google Play.

   * **Clients in the Terminal**
     * "p": the Python/Pump.io equivalent of "t" (for Twitter, written in Ruby), you can check your activity stream and inbox, send messages, reply to messages, post images, etc. I love this. [[https://github.com/xray7224/p/]]
