If you are familiar with blogs or if you have been reading this blog all along, you can skip this post. But if you are new to blogs, here are some suggestions on how to get the most out of this one.
Entries are posted in chronological order, most recent on top. Therefore, the blog is best read from the bottom up. However, the main page for this blog only shows 10 posts. You have to scroll down and click the "Older Posts" link at the bottom to get the 10 previous posts, etc. As there are presently over 60 posts on this blog, this is a tedious way to get to the beginning of the blog.
An easier way is to use the navigation links under the blog Archive on the left side of the blog. This blog was started in October 2007. All of the "live" posts from the China trip are in October. I have continued to post follow-up entries in November and December. Click on the month under the blog Archive navigation links to see all the entries for that month. (Or click the little triangle to the left of the month to see just the titles of the entries for that month.)
To make it even easier, here are the links for the first three months of entries on this blog. Read each one from the bottom up, if you want to read the entire blog in chronological order.
October 2007
November 2007
December 2007
This blog has a handy search feature in the upper left hand corner. For example, if you want to know if I mentioned methane digesters in any posts, enter "methane" in the search field and click "Search." You will find this post, of course, and you will also find the post titled "Jinan Field Trip" from 10/13/07.
This blog allows readers to post comments. You can view comments posted by others, or post your own comments, by clicking the "comments" link at the end of any post.
If you want to send me e-mail, you can find my e-mail address by clicking my name under "Contributors" to the left, and then clicking "Email" under "Contact."
UPDATE: All of the 2007 entries on this blog are about the China trip. In 2008 we started to include other subjects of interest to the Yankee community.
