Methodology

Software applications for genealogists have made the drudgery of writing, indexing and publishing family history as easy as printing a report. But these reports, while fascinating to those of us with the genealogy bug, are rarely a big draw to our immediate or extended families. Sometimes, only guilt will provide the impetus for them to pick up the book. And sometimes, even that won’t work. At the same time, our audience’s expectations regarding education and entertainment are evolving. We are all learning to consume information in many new formats: HTML, Kindle, podcast, Facebook, blog, and more. Discover techniques, checklists, templates, and samples for new methods of publishing family history that is compelling and engaging to all. They won’t be able to put it down!
