* During roams or when moving through unfamiliar hostile space, every now and then link your present location (drag the triangle that is next to the upper left system name) into your private player channel and hit return. After a while you'll have a perfect note of the reverse route home or to safety if things go pear-shaped, you'll also be able to guide your corp mates home if things get a little chaotic and the FC gets podded (lol).

* A very basic cyno alt: (use a fresh character) They need to be able to fly any race's frigates, as you never know what will be for sale in 0.0/lowsec, and this will require only racial frigate to level 3 for each race. Also you will have to be able to use and fit a Cynosural Field Generator, I recommend Cynosural field theory to L3 to allow 2 cynos worth of fuel in a frigate. FYI: 350 units of Liquid Ozone (LO) per cyno at L3, this equals 700 LO for 2 cynos, and 700 LO takes up 280m3 cargo space)

* For a much better cyno alt: (still use a fresh character) You can get a Cyno using alt that can cloak and use a MWD I with cap recharger I, The cloak is invaluable if you are doing a mid point cyno in the middle of nowhere, you can just get in position and cloak up until needed. If you train this 'better' cyno alt AND train for a bit of extra agility/speed too, you have a very useful and expendable character that will be able (with a bit of practice) get almost anywhere you need a cyno-guy to be put! And as a bonus you will still be well under the 800,000 skill point limit for needing to purchase medical clones every time you get pod killed (it happens sometimes - you just have to get used to this). Overall the benefits of having a cyno character far outweigh the training time used up.
