8.2. SUUNTOSPORTS.COM SECTIONS

SuuntoSports.com includes three sections with several functions. The

following paragraphs describe only the basic functions of

SuuntoSports.com. You can find detailed descriptions of all the site

functions and activities and step-by-step instructions for using them

from the site Help. The Help is available on each page and its icon is

located on the right side of the bar dividing the screen. The Help is

frequently updated as the site develops.
SuuntoSports.com offers several possibilities for searching the infor-

mation on site. In addition to the free search, you can search, for exam-

ple, for groups, users, resorts, logs and sports.
The information published on the SuuntoSports.com contains internal

links so that you do not always have to search for the information from

the very beginning. For example, if you view a description of a resort,

you can follow the links and view the resort information sender’s per-

sonal information, logs related to the resort and charts created from the

logs, if the sender has agreed to this information being made public.

My Suunto

The My Suunto section of the site is meant for your personal informa-

tion. You can store information about yourself, your wristop computer,

your sporting and training activities, etc. When you upload your person-

al logs to SuuntoSports.com they are displayed in your personal infor-

mation. Here you can also manage them and decide if they can be

presented to all other community users or just to limited groups.
When you have uploaded logs to SuuntoSports.com, you can create

charts from the dive related data in the logs. You can also publish your

logs and compare them with other users’ logs.
The My Suunto section also contains a personal calendar that you can

use to mark personal events and other useful information.

Communities

In the Communities section, SuuntoSports.com users can form or

search groups and manage their own groups. For example, you can

create a group for all your diving friends, and share information about

each other’s trips, give advice and discuss where and when you could

go diving together. Groups can be either open or closed—closed groups

mean that you have to apply for a membership and be accepted, before

you can participate in group activities.
