Use "Invitations" to tell your followers when you have a new forum message, article, page, profile update or anything else that you want them to see. Invite them to view your content in the network.

The "Invitations" tab is located under your profile name in the main menu.

The tab leads to a form that allows you to send an email to members who follow your profile. In the form you should choose the item type (blog, etc.), and then the specific content from a second dropdown menu, and then compose a message.

Invitations can only be sent to people who already follow your profile.

Note: Your profile name and submenu with tabs will only appear in the main menu after you have logged in.

All members of our network are encouraged to invite other people or companies to join.

There is no system for this built into the network. That would require members agreeing to pass their contact lists to the network, creating a security headache for everyone.

The simple thing is to use your own email account to send invitation or recommendation messages that include ourthe URL (website address):

researchcooperative.org

The best way for our network to grow is of course by word of mouth - literally. Please tell others about the network when you meet them face to face! The name and address are easy to remember.

Thanks in advance.
