If you are using [Confluence Team Hosted|http://www.atlassian.com/software/confluence/hosted.jsp], there are no *personal spaces*. A Confluence Team Hosted user does have a [profile|User Profile Overview], including the ability to upload a [profile picture|Uploading a Profile Picture].

In Confluence, content is organised into spaces. There are two types of spaces:
* _Global_ spaces are areas on your site into which you can group content items (pages, attachments, news, etc) based on any theme or topic of your choice. For example, you may want separate areas on your site for each team or project within your organisation. In Confluence, you can set up a different space for each team or project. You can build content for each of these spaces individually, decide who its users are, and even archive mail separately within each. There is no limit to the number of global spaces you can create within Confluence\!

* _Personal_ spaces belong to particular users, and rather than being listed on the Dashboard (see below), are available from the [People Directory|Searching the People Directory]. They can contain pages and news items, be searched and browsed. They can be kept private, or opened up so the whole world can view and edit them, just like global spaces.

Confluence treats each space as an independently managed wiki. This means that each space functions autonomously within your site.

*Each space:*
* Has its own [pages|Working with Pages Overview], [news items|Working with News Overview], [comments|Commenting on a Page], [bookmarks|Working with Bookmarks] _(if the Bookmarks Plugin is enabled)_, [RSS feeds|Subscribing to RSS Feeds within Confluence] and [mail|Archiving Mail Overview] _(mail applies to global spaces only)_.
* Has its own [access control settings|Space Permissions Overview], so you can set different levels of access to different spaces.
* Can be separately exported to [PDF|Confluence to PDF] , [HTML|Confluence to HTML] or [XML|Confluence to XML].

You can view all the global spaces within a site via the [Dashboard]. You also group global spaces together into 'Team Spaces' or 'My Spaces' to enable easy access to the content that is most relevant to you. See [Customising the Dashboard].

*Here is an example of how you could categorise information using spaces:*
