Kind of a Blog

Facebook

 

A new format for Dan's information

This is not a full-fledged Blog. It does not have hourly interaction, but it is current and fresh with new information and photos of my activities. I like to call it: Kind of a Blog (KOB). The postings are actually from me. They are political, personal and governmental.

In order to share postings when I am on the road, I am integrating my Dan Fan Page on Facebook with KOB. The Dan Fan Page on Facebook is updated daily, if not several times a day. It has current comments, articles and several photos.

I hope you enjoy KOB integrated with Facebook.

What do you think of this format?  Send me an email.

From Wikipedia:

Facebook is a free-access social networking website that is operated and privately owned by Facebook, Inc. Users can join networks organized by city, workplace, school, and region to connect and interact with other people. People can also add friends and send them messages, as well as update their personal profiles to notify friends about themselves.

 

 

From Dan:

One application of Facebook is for friends to become Facebook Friends to interact on their Facebook Profile. Both parties must be a member of Facebook and must accept each other as Facebook Friends in order to view each other's postings (the personal website is called a Profile). The Profile allows accepted Friends to post comments (similar to a Blog), see their photos, selected articles and updates. They may post information about what is happening in their day.

Another use of Facebook is called a Fan Page. This is a Facebook webpage which is open to viewing by anyone on the internet, regardless of being a member of Facebook. Anyone may view the photos and basic information of a Fan Page. In order to view a Fan Page in its entirety, post comments on the Page and receive notification updates, the individual must be a member of Facebook and sign up as a Fan of that Fan Page.

I have a personal Profile. Friends must opt in and be accepted to have access to the site.  I post family and life happenings there.

I also have a Dan Fan Page which is open to the world wide web and where I regularly post governmental and political happenings. One need not be signed up to Facebook to have access to this site.


Photo Gallery

Check out my new photo gallery! The pictures are on my Facebook Fan Page. New photos are added regularly and you do not have to be a member of Facebook to view this page.

 

I am really honored to have friends and leaders from a diverse Asian Community to help guide our efforts!

      Soups  and Casseroles   


I personally like soup and casseroles. In fact, one of my favorite weekend activities is to make homemade soup or casserole and freeze it for office lunches.

 


If you have any great soup or casserole recipes, send them to me and I will share them on this page with others. A photo of you making them would be welcomed too!
