Welcome, Marian. I hope you find Tripitini more useful than I have. I find it very frustrating that I get emails saying "to see this conversation" which I click on and land on the Media landing page. I then have to search by name for whomever commented to find the conversation. I'm not a programmer but it's easier to land on conversations in other sites and I hope Tripitini will improve this soon. I participate very little b/c I don't have time to click, search, click to participate. I like one-click conversing. Maybe that's just me. Anyway was happy to see you've joined.
