Some people wonder if site notes are strictly used in relation to the content pages of Travelers Antique Guide. There are 2 areas of the site notes, the personal notes and the content notes. An example of a content note would be if you were reading an interest group topic and decided that you wanted to make a note to yourself about that topic or a user posting under that topic. You could do so directly from that topic and those notes would be kept in your content notes and could always be referenced from that topic area. Personal notes are notes that you may want to keep regarding some other topic or site detail (such as an idea that you had on how to use the site) but is not necessarily related to specific content. These notes are kept in the personal notes section of my site notes. You can always access your site notes at the "My Site notes" link under your "My Account tools" menu.
