Site Guide
This Blog is chock full of information and resources to help you learn about Menopause (before, during and after) and how to help yourself feel well and stay healthy. So that you get the most out of this site, here’s a summary of what it has to offer, and where to find it.
Organization
The current feature is front and center - as you would expect. The titles of the next five, most recently published Blog posts are listed just to the right, in the center column. You can also scroll down to view all recent posts, which sometimes show only the first paragraph. Just click on “click to continue” to read the Blog post in its entirety. All articles are archived chronologically and you can search that way as well.
Commenting
Hearing from readers is the best part of doing this blog. So, please, don’t hesitate to leave comments and let me and others know what you think. I post every comment that contributes to a dialogue. However, spam and outright self-promotion without any relevance to the Blog post won’t be published.
Bookmarking and Emailing Blogposts
If you want to share a particular Blog post with a friend (or your mother), click on the “Share This” icon at the end of each Blog post. You’ll then be given a choice of emailing it or posting it to a bookmarking site such as delicio.us, or digg.
To Research a Particular Topic
There are two ways to find information on a particular topic: use the SEARCH field to find articles that appear only on this Blog; or, search the CATEGORIES section found in the right column.
Access to Other Resources & Information
To help you with your own research, I include links to documentation and background information whenver possible. I also update the BlogRoll frequently - adding links to other blogs and websites that I believe have a lot to offer. I’ve also included a real-time news feed so that any articles about Menopause - anywhere - appear here. If you visit this Blog regularly, you’ll be up to date on the latest research and relevant health news.
Subscribe!
It’s easy. You can read updates by subscribing to an RSS feed if you use a Reader (i.e. Google Reader, BlogLines). Or you can enter your email address to receive them in your in-box. Both options can be found in the right column.
Copyright
There is a “creative commons” copyright notice on the bottom of this blog’s webpage. This means that I give permission for people to use my content (i.e. copy, distribute, display) as long as it is properly attributed and not used for commercial use. Visit the Creative Commons website for a complete explanation. If you want to use my content but are unsure if it’s “legal” please feel free to contact me using the online form provided.
Please note that blogposts written by any one other than myself (in other words all “guest bloggers”) do not fall under this Creative Commons license and all rights are reserved by the author. Again, please feel free to contact me if you have any questions.
Contact Me!
Questions, suggestions for topics and any and all feedback is welcomed. Please click on the “CONTACT ME” tab at the top and a form will come up for you to use. I use this approach rather than posting my email address in order to avoid spam, which I already have enough of.
