Register for a lawrence.com account

Registration is free and lets you use all the advanced features on the site. Start by giving us your e-mail address, and we'll send you instructions on how to continue.

We will not spam you or give your e-mail address to anybody. We hate spam as much as you do. We ask for your e-mail address in order to curtail the multiple-account-registration syndrome -- which happens anyway, but this is somewhat of a barrier.

Note: If your e-mail provider, to control spam, does not allow incoming messages from senders you have not approved beforehand, you will need to set up your e-mail account to allow messages from homies@lawrence.com and webmaster@ljworld.com. Our software sends out a confirmation e-mail, but we can't determine whether your e-mail provider allows the confirmation e-mail to be accepted.

AOL users: AOL might consider the registration e-mail we send out to be spam and prevent you from receiving it. Unfortunately, until AOL changes their e-mail mechanisms, the only work-around is to sign up for a lawrence.com account using a non-AOL e-mail account, such as Yahoo! or Gmail.

A note to the naysayers:

We thought long and hard about whether to require registration on certain parts of this site. Honestly, most of us at lawrence.com get ticked off when we're surfing the Web and get smacked with a "please register" message. It's a pain to have to remember usernames and passwords for dozens of different sites.

But we ended up deciding to require registration on certain features of this site because we felt the features wouldn't be nearly as useful without it. Restaurant reviews would be practically worthless if we didn't make people own up to their words. Some blog comment threads would degenerate into anonymous name-calling without a registration requirement. And some of our upcoming customization features just plain wouldn't work without it. You get the point.

So, here's our policy: We're doing this registration thing wherever it makes sense. And we hope that makes sense to you.
