Are you looking for a presenter for your next meeting?

We are Tampa-area hobby genealogists who also happen to work in the software industry. We have used our knowledge of software to present our own family research in various formats and forums. And we can show you how to do it too.

We offer a number of presentations and a book-related workshop. Most of our presentations revolve around using one or more Microsoft products to accomplish a genealogy-related task. Lately, we've been using lots of Google applications too.

So check out our presentation list and see if there's something we can do to help your members. When you find a presentation you're interested in, email us at info@technology-tamers.com.

Succesfully Redirected Go Daddy Account

Yeah! Redirecting the Go Daddy link to this blog was a piece of cake. Go Daddy had improved its interface...so much easier.

So far I've complete four articles for the FSGS Journal (Cori is happy) and a new Paint presentation. I've been playing with paint for a long time now. You can do all sorts of interesting stuff with it. Now all Pattie and I need to do is come up with a few more tools that we use that others most like don't know about and we'll have another mix and match presentation...my favorite kind.

Playing with Google Blogs

While playing with my family research blog, it occurred to me that Pattie and I would have an easier time maintaining a blog than we have had maintaining a website. The big complication is that my provider account is difficult to access and quirky to use. And it's a limited access account so that Pattie couldn't just drop in and change something when she wanted to do so. Indeed, the reason that I set up a personal family research blog was the ease of use. So I talked to Pattie and she said, "Go for it!" Thus we have a blog.

I'm hoping that Pattie and I will be able to report on the new discoveries, announce new presentations, and have a bit of fun. We'll see.
