I’ve only been here about six months but was active on TuDiabetes for many years. I offer this suggestion as a minor way to widen participation in our community. It’s easily observable to anyone who frequently shows up …

I just had a look at all the categories and how well they are filling. They are all good, except for the Type 2 and the pregnancy categories - these are bereft of comment and traffic. Not sure if there is anything w…

This is a weird post for me – I am driven by data more than anything else. But, in this case, I am trying to share an impression, a feeling maybe. For the first time in 6-7 months (since the start of FUD), I just spent…

I don’t have useful suggestions on this. However as a user who primarily interacts with FUD through her iPhone, and finds Discus helpful but not amazing, I find it a little bit difficult to determine where the wiki art…
