Social Networking Update

Welcome to the newest update for moving forward into the virtual world.

We have been busy behind the scenes getting the technical side of connecting the Delta Kappa Society Website and the DKGnetwork connected. Installations have been completed and URL's point to the right spot. We will finish all the navigation pieces for the website soon. Then we provide that information to the GoLightly team for integration. This will allow the 2 sites to have the same look and blend from one to another as you choose to enter the DKGnetwork. Oh one other thing, we now own dkg.org which will be the new URL for the international site. Our email has already made the change. So you can reach me at lindae@dkg.org. I'd love to hear from you.

This is very exciting to me as we are getting closer to launching the new look and feel for the international website and the beginnings of the social network component. We are planning this launch in January. The website will have a great new beautiful appearance and new navigation. Our aim is to make it much easier to find what members need. With that in mind here's a hint... to find anything to do with committees, you'll go to the committee tab which will be part of the top navigation. To find forms, applications, resources, program ideas and much more, you'll go to the library, also in the top navigation. I've shared the new changes with Phyllis Hickey and Corlea Plowman and they are excited with the new design.

I'll keep you posted about the new website but for the next couple of weeks, I'll be working to develop the next issue of the DKG NEWS.
