Considering Format Changes – What Do You think?

I’ve written monthly scam prevention articles for several years now and am wondering who is reading them and/or using the information I provide to help educate themselves and loved ones. I am considering some formatting changes but would like to know if anyone has suggestions or ideas on what, if any, changes you would like to see. Please feel free to comment and let me know your thoughts. Thanks!
