RootsTech 2018

Everyone knows about RootsTech! This year, unlike years before, the videos went right up and were accessible for home viewers very quickly. There were more videos online after the days events, than were open to streaming. This was wonderful to me. I had wanted to see a few that were not streamed, and I was able to later. I still have many to see. Lots of information in the many videos available.

You can view the videos here.

So far my favorites are:
Google Photos: Collect, Organize, Preserve and Share by Michele Goodrum. I only saw half of it as life interrupted, so I went and watched the videos later. I hadn't looked at Google Photos. Now I am using them.

A Gift of Life: Who's Writing Your Story? by Deborah A. Abbott, Ph.D. I saw this one as it was streamed. She was so funny and interesting. Inspired me to get my stories down!

How Not to Leave Your Genealogy Behind by Amy Johnson Crow and Curt Witcher. This was so good. Love Amy, of course and Curt is very knowledgeable. Lots of thinking to do about just this. Need to watch it again and take notes!

Pain in the Access: More Web for Your Genealogy by Curt Witcher. This one was crazy good. He is funny and smart. I loved every minute of this one and certainly have a lot to put into action!

I have quite a few more to watch. I did not catch the Saturday General Session which was Dr. Henry Louis Gates Jr. and I did want to see it.  I need to see several of the DNA ones. That is where I really need to learn.

Anyway, I will be busy for some time.
