It is a new world for you to discover and curate, so take advantage of that

Add a description about yourself, and some relevant tags. These will help you find more and more people and organizations. This social network does not track your activities (as it is private), so it relies entirely on what you put in your profile page!
We’ve also created pages for most of the sources we use for our TROMnews, so that you can follow these sources individually. And we are creating new ones quite often, so keep an eye on the Local Directory and follow the ones you find interesting!
