Hey Eggs, let me see if I can explain it to you. These topics alway show up in the top right hand corner without you doing anything.

Now if you want to add Breaking News or any other topic to your list go to the top rt. of the screen and click on topics. A window will open with all the different topics listed. If you want Breaking new to be the first in line after the list above scroll down to it first, then click on it. When that window comes up there will be a sentence at the top in a different color. It will say you are not subscribed to this topic. If you want to subscribe click here. Then scroll to the next topic you want in your right hand column and do the same thing for the next topic. Just remember the order you click on them is the order they will come up in your right hand column. Once you do this you will see all the threads in the Breaking news like before. If I remember once you do this you need to refresh your screen

I hope this makes sense to you. It took me a long while to figure it out.

If I'm reading you right, it would mean that I'd have to UNSUBSCRIBE all
of the topics FIRST, and then go back in and select them in the order I want.
Thanks. I'll try it now.

Well, I'm half way there. I just Unsubscribed to all of the topics. Bad news, though.
NOW, when I click on topics in the top right, ALL it shows is General, no Breaking News.
Arrgghh!

Ugh. Now I've found breaking news, started the subscribing thing, and no matter what, breaking news won't stay up at the top.

My big issue with this is that, with all the activity in the middle east, I'd like to find out about the news as soon as I can, and if I have to go searching for breaking news, it's time consuming.

Oh, well. I'll just set it up as best I can and try to adapt. Thank to all for all the help.
