Computer Genealogy - Getting Organized to Get Started Presentation & Description by Chuck Roberts
Genealogy is a popular computer project, especially as the user population ages. Wanting to know more about your family history seems to almost be universal as we age.
There are numerous genealogy programs in the marketplace, and there are multiple opinions as to which is the "best" to use. But I refuse to join that debate — there is no obvious winner. However, what I plan to present to the audience is some of the insight and tools I have found that helps a researcher organize their collected materials, which helps to show them what's missing, and what they need to be looking for.
Data organization is paramount when looking at a three foot stack of paper! Regardless of whether the stack contains census records (prints of microfilm), death certificates, headstone tracings or maps and photos, my tools, handouts and samples will help any researcher view a better picture of what they have and what they need to be looking for.
Roboform Password Manager
August's 'Learn 30' topic will be a discussion of Roboform, a solution for conveniently accessing the many passwords you need to navigate the on-line world. Roboform stores user ids and password information in encrypted files. Paul Howard will demonstrate how this inexpensive program can vastly increase the safety of your online accounts. As its name implies, the program will also complete many standard forms automatically, and generates secure passwords with minimal effort.
Special Door Prize Raffle Prizes include Windows 7 Ultimate, Windows 7 Home Premium, Microsoft Digital Imaging Suite, USB to Serial adapter, Laptop computer case, USB keyboard vacuum, USB WiFi adapter, Acronis True Image 10, Acronis Disk Director 10, more.
