Using Protopage
To get to the various topics (shown on top), you need only click the tab of your choice. Each page has a variety of widgets. Many of the boxes (widgets) have direct links to useful websites. To access the information, you can click on the words. Each page will look similar, but have different information. Some widgets have documents. To view more of the document you need to click and drag on the tiny arrow at the bottom right of the widget.
