Roots Tech 2012

When I registered for the Roots Tech 2012 conference back in November 2011 I took advantage of the $89 discount rate for consultants!  Little did I know how great this conference would turn out to be!  Imagine the latest and greatest tech toys and developments working in tandem with family history!  That is Roots Tech!

This conference is sponsored by FamilySearch and I am always so impressed with the scope and variety of the classes for both developers and users not to mention the diversity in levels for beginner - advanced family historians.

Day one was a busy one as it kicked off with a keynote speaker--Jay Verkler, CEO of FamilySearch, who gave us a quick look at how things are now and what they anticipate the future will hold.  Then off to the exhibition hall where Kevin and I had sent our family pedigrees in PDF format to Genealogywallcharts.com the night before.  They printed them 24"x36" in color--all 9  generations!  They did a free black and white 24"x36" too!  Really fun and you can immediately see where your direct line holes are!

My personal 9 generations!
