Hi Maureen -

Great to have you in the community. I like to do three things. One - I share things about what's going on in my world; I think that every time someone shares a piece of his/her life with the rest of the community, the world changes in some small, positive way. Two - I like to get discussions going about topics where global perspectives are useful - geopolitics, travel, food, customs, cultures, etc. Three - sometimes I hit the "user view" icon above and literally find someone to message specifically, based on the areas of expertise that people list on their profiles.

Hope that helps.

Bt
