How to participate in Monday Windows
Windows are all around us, windows to look into, windows to look out of. This challenge is to look at windows, photograph interesting ones and share the images. You can either post new photos of windows or dig some out of your archives.
You may show one photo or more. You may wish to tell about the window. Include as much, or as little, text as you like. Your topic can be windows of any kind, not just windows in houses and buildings.
You may post weekly or whenever you wish – no need to feel compelled to follow a schedule.

If the Monday Window bug bites you …
There is more you can do to add to your enjoyment and that of your readers and followers. Mark your Monday Window post with the category Monday Window. Categories are powerful ways to manage posts on your own site. While tags can be tracked throughout the blogosphere, well the WordPress.com community, categories work just on your own site.
Add a category item to your navigation menu. You might label it My Monday Window posts. You need not do anything more. WordPress generates a page on the fly when someone clicks that menu item and populates the page with your posts.
You do not have to add the category to your menu, it still works.
