I'm a Junkie

Yes, I will admit it--I am a youtube junkie. I can spend hours watching different youtube videos. Although I tend to concentrate on craft ones (scrapbooking, rubber stamps, card making), I do look at a few other ones. But one site that really got me watching genealogy videos was Roots Television. (www.rootstelevision.com).

This site is a partnership between Megan Smolenyak Smolenyak and Marcy Brown who is the producer of the videos. There are different "news channels" listed at the bottom of the main page. These include -news and features, conferences, Dearly departed (the cemetery ones), immigration, military, British roots, Irish roots, Jewish roots, Africian roots, libraries and a few others. Also available is a "program guide" that will list the updated programs available.

I have watched several from the conference channel. If you haven't been able to attend a genealogy conference because of distance or cost, let me suggest that you watch a few of these videos. It's the next best thing to being there. And of course, I have watched all the cemetery videos.

Don't forget to sign up for the Oz Blog newsletter letter that will keep you updated on new programs. It's usually sent out once a month.

Let me know what you found interesting on Rootstelevision.com
