| T.A.N. is an online newsletter presented as a blog. Ambassadors East news and events are continually added to the site as they occur throughout the year, which
means you may access it at your convenience on your own daily, weekly or monthly schedule
to keep up to date. The most recent news (posts) will be dated and appear at the top
of the page. Old posts are never discarded. These may be accessed by the month they
were published by clicking on or tapping (for handheld devices) on the arrows by month in
the left column with the heading View Past Articles. You may also view past articles by category by clicking on a category from the heading, Select Posts by Category, also found in the left column of the page. Below are some tips on how to easily access T.A.N. from your computer, laptop, iPad, iPhone or Android device whenever you want the latest AE news: 1. First access the T.A.N. home page by typing the following in the address line in your browser (top line in Windows Explorer, Google Chrome, Firefox, Safari or Android Browsers). You may also type the address in the Google or Bing search engines to locate the site. 2. When you reach the T.A.N. home page, you can do one of two things: |
||
| a. All of the browsers listed above have a feature
called either "Bookmarks" or "Favorites".
These functions do the same thing, ie. they save the address of the current page you
are on so that the page can be easily accessed whenever you are on the Internet.
While on the T.A.N. home page, add the page to your Bookmarks or Favorites. (The saved addresses are listed under "Bookmarks" or "Favorites" on
your browser's top menu.) b. The second method provides the easiest access to T.A.N. This method places an icon for the T.A.N. homepage on your Computer Desktop or iPad, iPhone or Android device Home Screen. Here's how do do this for the following browsers or operating systems: |
||
| (1.) When using
Windows Internet Explorer, Firefox, Chrome or Safari browsers on a desktop
or laptop computer. Go to the T.A.N. homepage as described in step 1. You
should see an "address line" at the very top of your page which shows the page
you are on (in this case "www.ambassadorseast.org").
Just to the left of the name of the page you will see a small icon. Using the left
mouse button, drag this icon from the homepage directly to your desktop and let go.
The icon will remain on the desktop for instant access to T.A.N. (You may have to
resize the TAN window to make the desktop visable in order to drag the icon to it). SIMPLER WAY WITH WINDOWS EXPLORER: When you reach the TAN homepage as described in step 1, click on your RIGHT mouse button and select "Create Shortcut". Answer, "Yes" to the query that pops up and a link to TAN will be added to your desktop. |
||
| (2.) When
using the Safari Browser on the iPad or iPhone. Tap on the Safari
icon on the iPad Home Screen. Navigate to the T.A.N. homepage
(www.ambassadorseast.org). When the page is finished loading, tap on the Share icon
on the top left of your screen next to the address line. From the Share
menu, tap on "Add to Home Screen". On the next pop-up tap on
"Add" in the top right corner. You will be
taken back to the Home Screen and you will see the icon for T.A.N. added to the screen. |
||
| (3.) When
using an Android Tablet or Galaxy Phone. Adding a shortcut to your
Home Screen using these devices is a bit more complicated. In the browser you must
first create a "Bookmark" for your T.A.N. home page. Once that is
established, you get out of the browser and return to the Home Screen. There you
select "Menu" and then "Add". From the Add menu select
"Shortcuts". From "Shortcuts" you select "Bookmarks"
and then tap on the Bookmark you just created for the T.A.N. home page.
The shortcut to T.A.N. will appear on your Home Screen. |
