Welcome to the Den!

Hello everyone, and welcome to The Thinkers Den, a blog for individuals who wish to continue their intellectual inquiries on the web.

All opinions and perspectives are welcomed, and encouraged. This blog was created with the intention of allowing for a variety of different ideas, thoughts, and theories to be discussed and expanded upon at their own pace, thus allowing the individual to pick and choose to respond to topics of special interest to her.

Those contributing to the posts are under no obligation to commit to a certain number of posts per week/month/year/etc. Rather we would have you take your time developing ideas and responses so come and go at your own leisure.

A couple of pointers for newcomers to the world of BLOG.

1. You can save drafts of your posts before officially publishing it and having it displayed on the main page. You will find saved drafts under the edit posts tab. If you do save a post and publish it at a later date, make sure to change the date and time of the post from the date of creation to the date you are publishing it, found under the "post options" tab in the bottom left corner of the "New Post" and "Edit Posts" screens.

2. The main page of the blog only displays a limited number of posts at a time. Previously published posts can be found in the Blog Archive on the right hand side of the screen, organized by date published.

3. If you are responding to another person's post, please respond in the comments area at the bottom of that post, and not with a new post. This will help keep topics and discussions organized and easy to follow. New posts should be limited to new ideas/theories, or topics of discussions that have not yet been touched upon.

4. If there is a video you would like people to watch, you have several options: you may display the link to the video or, if the video has an option to embed(all youtube videos do), you can copy the embed code from the host website, and then paste it in the "Edit Html" tab at the top right corner of the "New Post" and "Edit Posts" screens. Click the "preview" button and you should see a video screen instead of text to know you have embedded the video correctly.
