Organizing Posts

Hello All...

I will be sorting through all posts/comments today and rearranging some groupings to make it easier (quicker) for you to access main ideas.  If you find things in different spots, you will know why.  Once these are sorted out, we can keep it tidy by following a few basic 'rules':

1. Make sure your title reflects the content of your post. We should be able to look at the title and know if it is something we are interested in pursuing. that, of course, doesn't mean a long title... simply a meaningful one.
   
2. Be sure to label each post (bottom right on the composition box). If you click on the blue link there it will show you all labels that have been created thus far. You just need to click on the appropriate one to make your post part of that group (label). If, however, you do not see a label there that is appropriate for your post, simply type a new one in the label box before you post. When you go back to the post list, you will see your new label in with the others. You will notice that I am creating a new label with this message, called 'Heads Up'.
3. If you have resources to share (Links to sites, suggested books or articles), please take the time to add those in a separate post and attach the label 'Reading Room'. To date, most of the references to articles, etc. are buried within a post or comment, therefore scattered throughout the blog. It would be good to have them in one place. So, do include them in your post if you like, but follow up with a separate post that cites the resource (and where to find it) and a sentence or two so we can know whether or not it is what we are looking for. If we all do this, we can build a significant Reading Room in little time. Additionally, for those of you who are citing material you intend to read, please remember to keep us up to date by way of a quick review once you have read them. It goes a long way.

Watch for a few changes over the next few days... if you have questions, you can email me at anytime.

Cheers! 
Maggie
