Family History Blogtime

Time to get serious about my upcoming opportunity to teach others "how to create a family history blog." Later this month I will be teaching a class on that subject at the Dixie Center for the Family History Expo 2009. So, I'm challenging myself to focus all my posts this month on different aspects of genealogy or family history.  

I hope to cover:

(1) WHAT is genealogy or family history?
(2) HOW to get started
(3) HOME SOURCES
(4) HOW TO INTERVIEW family members
(5) ORGANIZING your data
(6) RESEARCH TIPS and FINDING Internet Cousins
(7) INTERNET RESEARCH LINKS
(8) WRITING FAMILY HISTORIES
(9) LESSON PLANS for teaching classes 
(10) WEBPAGES and BLOG IDEAS 
(11) ARTICLES from my column 
(12) REUNION and ideas to involve YOUTH 

Any other areas you'd like to learn about?
