Permalinks and content updates. A number of the posts on this blog are of lasting interest. Some of the content has to be updated but I can edit the posts and keep the content up-to-date (without changing the link). That is what I have been doing.
-
Posts that have recently been updated will have a title prefix of the year of the most recent update. The date of the update will appear near the top of the post.

Search bar and Translation bar have been added to the right-hand column.

Themes
I am looking for Invited articles and news releases that fit these themes. If you have a report or release that you want me to consider, you can contact me as Selby Evans in Linkedin or Google+ . In Second Life, the best way to contact me is to send Thinkerer Melville a notecard inworld. Be sure to include relevant slurls and web links.
-
You can also make a comment on this blog. In that case, your post should carry the news you want to release. I may not pick up the information. at least not immediately. In some cases, I may not post on it but will list it in the Events page (see above in the header menu). But if I see something that calls for follow-up, I will get back to it when I have a place on my publishing schedule.
-
Please note that I am primarily interested in actionable content--content that some readers could use in things they are doing or planning. That also means I need it at least a week in advance.
-
Publishing schedule
Usually there will be 6 posts a week with one day skipped in midweek.
