Is there a home page or "channel" or some starting point that shows the relevant/current week regardless of when you click on it? Maybe it's broken in my browser, I tried clicking on phrases in the header like "Job Search Central", "Job and Employment Links" and "Magdalene Chan", which I thought would go to some kind of high level topic page. Like Job Search Central home page, the home page for this blog where you can see the most recent week posted, and a list of Magdalen Chan's posts.
