Here we are again on Wednesday, so it's once again 'get connected' day here in the Getting Started group (no-one reminded me last week, so we missed one!). 

What to do...

Comment to this post (use the comment form at the bottom of the page) with a short note about yourself and who you're looking to connect to.  Easy!

If you see someone with experience similar to yours, who you'd like to connect to, then just click their username (in their post) and you will end up on their profile page.  Then all you need to do is look on the left side of the page under their picture and you'll see an "add contact" link and follow the prompts.

Why connect to others?

One of the good things about connecting to others, is that all of their blog posts will show up on your homepage in a reading list.  So if you haven't visited the site in a few days, you'll still see what everyone is up to!

Important note

Remember to check your own privacy settings on your "edit" page. There's no need to reveal anything personal or private, but if you want others to connect to you, you should make some of your My Profile settings "public" so others can find out a bit about you (eg. 'my story', 'about' me' and 'breast cancer experience'). 

If you're not sure what to do, you might like to read this post on how to change your privacy settings.

Have fun!

    I thought I would introduce myself! I'm Daina, one of the site administrators for BCNA.

    I look forward to seeing some introductions soon!

    If you have any question about the network or general social-media questionsm just ask!

    If you don't want to ask in public, feel free to send me a personal message if you're stuck with something, need a hand or just have a good idea.
