Minti is both a social community and an "advice-opedia". And it relies on member contributed content. Hence the "powered by parents" tagline. Members need to consider which type of writing is appropriate and under what category.

When you've got something personal to share (exciting news, great photos, updates on your daily life, etc) it is perfectly appropriate to write about it in your blog. Another great place to write this type of content is within group blogs, if it seems fitting within the group you are writing the blog entry in.

When you've got advice or a helpful parenting tip or hint to share, that's when you "write advice".  If you want to read helpful tips or tricks that other's share, do a search for the topc you're interested in or poke around recent activity to take a look. You can add comments and vote for these articles.

And when you have a parenting question or concern that you'd like feedback on, you post a question under Q&A. And if you feel like you could really help somebody out, read through the questions and add an answer that might help out.
