Hi Helen, welcome to Newsvine. :) Just wanted to give you a bit of advice on how things work here... on articles you post or links you seed, it's traditional here to give yourself the first vote and also to make the first comment to kind of get discussion rolling. It's somewhat similar to the "tip jar" tradition on Dailykos diaries. Plus, once you get enough articles or seeds with votes to get out of the "greenhouse" (a somewhat moderated section for new people on newsvine, everyone new to newsvine goes through it) it will help your articles and seeds get noticed by others.
