About TopTips.com

Founded by Kate Reardon, TopTips.com is a community website featuring
user-generated content. It allows people to post their problems and others to
suggest solutions - it's a direct backlash against all those up-tight,
celebrity lifestyle gurus who can't remember the last time they did their own
laundry.

The problems range from the prosaic (how to get red wine out of the sofa)
to the profound (how to cope with bereavement), and most have inspired three
or four solutions. However, the problem "How to be happy?" provoked an
outpouring of tips. We know people want the answer as it's one of our most
searched tips, but the sheer number of responses means that it's the one
issue about which most people also feel they have some little grain of
goodness to share.

We want to pass on those tips, invite even more, and create a rolling
Campaign for Happiness at a time when the nation is in need of a boost.

So what is the secret of happiness?

Alain de Botton, the philosopher and best-selling author, when
interviewed exclusively for The Campaign for Happiness said:

"One of the things we like to do is hear other people's problems and try
solve them - after all, this is what TopTips.com is about. So that's what
makes people very, very happy - to be able to solve other people's
unhappiness."
