Hello Everyone,

Welcome to our new AKES online site.

As you can see this is a very different looking site and the buttons and arrows are in places where we will need to explore a bit and then practice.

I am starting with learning how to Message and to add Contacts.

I would appreciate if you would click the down arrow on your profile photo in the upper right corner. The dropdown list should include Messages.

Click Messages and in the lower part of the screen there should be a search box. Type in Cary and send a message so that I know we can communicate.

When my name comes up you will see a + sign (somewhere on the screen). If you click that + sign, this will place me on your contact list.

To add other people to you contact list, you will need to go up to Messages on the menu bar and do the process again. There might be another way to add many people at once but I have not found it yet. So, go ahead and add a few of your colleagues to your contact list.

I'm eager to receive your Messages.

Thanks for doing this next step.

Regards,

Cary
