I'm reading the Champion Newsfeed and remembering my tonsilectomy at age 5. I'd like to share the NewsFeed story here on Connect, but the share options don't allow me to chose connect, I can choose Facebook, Twitter, Pinterest, but not connect.

Who else has had their tonsils out, my kids never had the topic come up?

@Erinmfs - I like your suggestion to add a simple "Copy URL to clipboard" or "Copy link to clipboard". You can do it the old fashioned way on a computer by clicking on the page address (URL) at the top and then when it's highlighted, click the right mouse button on it and select Copy. Then paste it where you want it - like here:
https://newsnetwork.mayoclinic.org/discussion/consumer-health-treating-tonsillitis/

It's a little more tricky on a phone or mobile device but you can do the same thing. Touch the page address at the top and you will see it become highlighted. Then hold your finger down on it until it shows the Cut, Copy, Paste, Paste and Go prompt. Select Copy and then paste it where you want. Also, I should mention that you can't see the entire page address on the phone but it's there when you copy it.

Thank you, I used the copy and past the URL from the top of the page method, and did a social media posting of that News. I just would also like to have that option (post to Connect Group) in the Facebook, Twitter, Pinterest, etc pop up box like the other social media sites. I did a LinkedIn posting this morning to play with it.

That's a great topic for a new discussion, Erin.

I’m on my phone, how many notifications do I have? I can’t tell from my phone, notifications are more of a challenge from the phone. I don’t see a bell with a number from the phone?
