Yes, we strongly urge you to register.

In keeping with the spirit of our time, iMechanica is open: anyone can read any post without registering. To post in iMechanica, you need to register for a free account. However, even if you do not post anything, by registering you make a statement: you encourage fellow mechanicians to explore a new mode of communication, a mode that is faster, opener and more interactive. A large, active user list will attract more and better posts.

That is, by registering for a free account, you will have better posts to read in the long run, and you make a contribution to promote mechanics.

Registration takes 36 seconds. All you need is a user name and an email address. Your email address will be invisible to other users, and iMechanica will never abuse your email address.
