@SeekingSurnames @SimpleLivinGene @TreeBra44061473 I agree. I think for the first time #RootsTech didn't stand out for me this year for that very reason. ^cm #genchat

@Chapja @SharnWhite Ditto for me. Just have to accept it and focus on more productive research. I fix a few big errors usually at #RootsTech time to remove false "relatives at RootsTech" reporting. #ANZAncestryTime
A3 cont: I like the phone app for when I am out & about. Useful for #familyhistory discussions when needing to check something out. It's easy to use. Also for events like Relatives at #RootsTech.

Very sad new to hear of the passing of @hrworth Russ Worthington. He was a gentle kind helpful man. The #genealogy community will miss him very much. Each year at #RootsTech he always had time for a chat even though he was exhibiting or working.

@SeekingSurnames Writing is certainly different than video. I don't know if I could do video myself. I remember some of your #RootsTech Periscopes; you did a good job!
@GonenUri I sync'd my #FamilySearch tree, but it mistakenly copied over all my wife's stuff to myheritage in addition to my stuff. At #rootstech you said it would only copy over mine. I called tech support and they told me how to delete it.

#RootsTech started two weeks ago. Have you been back yet to view more sessions. You can view as many as you want as often as you want. Nothing on TV the turn on #RootsTech2022
6/6 Finally, I chose a talk from #RootsTech 2021 which I’d missed last year. “Is everybody here?” is a series of talks about ensuring you’ve found all the children in an English family, and you have the right family. Jana has lots of tips to help you. http://www.familysearch.org/rootstech/session/is-everyone-here-strategies-for-finding-complete-english-families-part-1-of-3
@MaccHistorian If #Genealogy gets too intense or we just want to take a brief break, this #RootsTech session by Renate Yarborough Sanders has good ideas: "What to do when there's nothing to do." https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XYBpu9knf5Y

@prene73 #AncestryHour Highly recommend the #RootsTech videos by Diahan Southard. 1/
https://www.rootstech.org/video/connecting-your-dna-matches-diahan-southard?lang=eng
@legalgen @prettydeadlady @whyiamwhoiam @geniaus In addition, be specific, offer alternatives & possible solutions. For example, recently a speaker publicly denigrated a colleague. I was shocked!A better approach in this case would’ve been to focus on the issue at hand—no need to attack. #RootsTech
@whyiamwhoiam @legalgen @prettydeadlady @geniaus I would call what you describe a misunderstanding which contributes to the idea suggested (not by me) that some are hyper-sensitive.
A good measure of whether it’s unintentional or bullying is that when pointed out to the offender, the offender stops or continues. #RootsTech
@legalgen @prettydeadlady @whyiamwhoiam @geniaus The key word in my response is “unintentionally.” Bullying is always intentional and should not be overlooked. #RootsTech

A late thought for this week’s #ANZAncestryTime talk about #RootsTech. When you watch a session you find particularly useful, don’t forget to check the syllabus that’s available and download it.
@iwikiwichick @ancestry_girl @ANZAncestryTime @fiona_memories @patientgenie 🧬 @RobertaJEstes created a list of #DNA sessions at #RootsTech that’s helpful.
One not listed is the ethics session that included @CeCeLMoore. One can’t talk ethics in #genealogy & not include a discussion about this important topic! #ANZAncestryTime https://dna-explained.com/2022/03/08/top-ten-rootstech-2022-dna-sessions-all-dna-session-links/
@SharnWhite You’ll also want to read this guide by @legalgen that follows up on the ethics session at #RootsTech. #ANZAncestryTime #DNA https://www.legalgenealogist.com/2022/03/06/the-dos-and-donts-of-dna/
This year #RootsTech had a link to “Calendar” as part of the menu. This allowed attendees to find day/time for the Main Stage, live sessions, & Expo demonstrations. It helped me to keep focused on the 2022 live sessions for the first 3 days. #ANZAncestryTime
@paulinemw Definitely difficult to find sessions - the live ones I attended were the ones being promoted elsewhere, so I knew what time they were on. #ANZAncestryTime
@cassmob @tasteach @Genemeet Please DM me the complaints, Pauleen. I’m interested in any feedback that will help meet the needs of attendees at #RootsTech.
I was disappointed that the polling questions were messed up. I submitted them accurately & something was lost in the translation.🤷🏻♀️
Good night everyone. Enjoyed your chat. I need to watch more #RootsTech sessions. #ANZAncestryTime
I’ve now added a couple of variations of the spreadsheets with all #RootsTech
sessions. #ANZAncestryTime
Speakers to watch out for on #rootstech. #ANZAncestryTime
A3 Sessions by @DrPennyW were interesting. Also the DNA painter ones are always helpful. others I enjoyed were Johsua Taylor, Tim Janzen, Nick Barratt, Michelle patient, Fiona Brooker, Cheryl Hudson Passey, Dianne Southard, Rob, Hamilton #ANZAncestryTime
A3: I really enjoyed Fiona Brooker’s session on Recording Memories…a bit different. #RootsTech #ANZAncestryTime @fiona_memories

@ANZAncestryTime A1 #ANZAncestryTime A bit of everything but with a main focus on #DNA sessions. Found the #RootsTech playlist problematic during the event because it couldn't be ordered by day and time.
I’m disappointed that the presentation by @cbgenealogy on Irish genealogy still hasn’t been uploaded. #RootsTech #ANZAncestryTime
@iwikiwichick @ancestry_girl @ANZAncestryTime @fiona_memories @patientgenie I thought that you could just choose "DNA" as a category to see all the sessions about DNA, but that didn't seem to work this year.
And if you get a list of DNA sessions, how will you know in what order to watch them?
#ANZAncestryTime #RootsTech #DNA
A1 I mainly sorted by filtering year, speaker as recommended by others on the #RootsTech twitter chat, some I sorted by category or topic #ANZAncestryTime
#ANZAncestryTime A1 I confess to being a hopeless #RootsTech attendee. I think I saw just one session but I really enjoyed it. Hopefully I will catch up on more later. There's never enough time is there to do everything?
@cassmob @ANZAncestryTime A1 I've just checked again and there now are 43. So a lot of people must have signed up at the end. I'll have to see how many are genuine. #ANZAncestryTime #RootsTech
A1.3 I’m saving the DNA talks for when my brain is in fully functioning mode 😁🤞#RootsTech #ANZAncestryTime
@MargLBailey @ANZAncestryTime That’s frustrating Margaret! I got to about 1200 matches but most were irrelevant to me…..12th half cousins. I got one 3rd and a few closer. #ANZAncestryTime #RootsTech
@cassmob A1 Exactly my thought too Pauleen. I have written the ones I have watched in my diary, but think I need to keep a spreadsheet of watched and unwatched. #ANZAncestryTime #RootsTech
@BrookeWooldy @ANZAncestryTime I open the session that I'm interested in on @familysearch #rootstech and then use the watch on YouTube button. Next the save button & select RT2022 playlist I have created. Find this much easier to manage. 1/2 #ANZAncestryTime
@travelgenee @fiona_memories @patientgenie Yes, Fiona’s and Michelle’s talks were very good. The live chat about Ethics etc was also very interesting. #RootsTech #ANZAncestryTime
A1.2: If I had a wish for the Playlist it would be the option for another tick box or similar so you can remind yourself you’ve watched a session without removing it. #RootsTech #ANZAncestryTime
A1 I took part in all of them at #RootsTech but did other things as well as sessions can be watched at any time this year #ANZAncestryTime
A1: As yet I haven’t watched any keynote recordings…recommendations welcome. I used My Playlist to add the sessions I wanted to watch, visited the Expo Hall and got relatives at #RootsTech but only 1 close cousin. #ANZAncestryTime

@thesingleleaf @MiningthePast I like your institute-type track idea! And must say, I enjoyed the slightly shorter sessions because speakers got to the point quickly and kept the focus tight. #RootsTech #GenChat
#RootsTech! On Day 2, I gave up. I couldn't attend many of the sessions due to them being full. Also couldn't access recordings. Heard many people had problems. Since the pandemic, I think conference hosts are overwhelmed by the increase in demand. #GenChat
Q4 #genchat Have people been able to keep up with the increase in the use of tech?
@Chapja @TreeBra44061473 Yes! And, #RootsTech was extremely generous with time with my proposal, providing three 20-minute time slots!
This session was organized to raise awareness. It just might be a series next year. #GenChat
@thesingleleaf @MiningthePast @Chapja #RootsTech I was saved by setting up to watch the main stage on Thursday, seeing the countdown on the live feed, so I knew at the start of the conference that the website was showing me GMT-8. If I had tried to dip in later, I would have missed sessions.
@packrat74 @MiningthePast @Chapja Good feedback, Jan. #RootsTech
@MiningthePast Deep dives are important yet the 20-minute format decision is based on research that indicates our attention can be held for about that amount of time. Think TedTalks.
I would like to see #RootsTech have an institute-like track or two, such as one focusing on DNA. #GenChat
@MiningthePast #GenChat The new #RootsTech design is a hot mess. There are some 'series' of talks: 3 talks to make up what used to be a 1-hour lecture. Good luck finding them though. 🙄 Apparently no organization to your playlist, unless it's in the order you added things to the list.
@DawnCarlile You’re one of the ~6% of genealogists who belong to 7+ societies according to a fumbled #RootsTech poll.🙄 #GenChat
@packrat74 Good thing many (if not all) were recorded! #RootsTech #genchat
It's been a week since RootsTech - have you recovered yet? LOL 🤣

https://typeshare.co/taneyaykoonce/posts/3-steps-to-take-now-that-rootstech-is-over
As I catch up on work after #RootsTech, for the sake of #GenealogyForAll, if the #genealogy community cannot agree on FG as the *official* initialism for @FindaGrave, Peter Drinkwater/@Ancestry, just change the name to #FindtheGrave!
(😉 We look for one at a time anyway.)
...Lynn (@thesingleleaf) made the point of the acronym to use and mentioned to the 470 odd people that were there to please use FG and there were two individuals out of the whole number in attendance thought this was an overreaction. One individual even went as far to say...

@cbgenealogy @RootsTechConf @cbgenealogy I’ve been unable to find the recording on the #RootsTech website or FB. Are you aware if it’s been uploaded somewhere that I’m just missing. I was really keen to watch it.
Thanks for letting me know Valorie, so if you want to look at the Dealing with Ethical Dilemmas in an Online World. It's now online, so tap the link in Valorie's tweet to view the recording.
