Free webinar on Pinterest and more for genealogists

Even though summer is in full swing and a few webinar providers have taken a break for a much-needed rest, Legacy Family Tree brings us what is sure to be another excellent webinar.

On Wednesday, July 8, at 9:00 p.m Eastern time, Thomas MacEntee will present Pinning your Family History.

Have you considered using a variety of social media “pinning” sites like Pinterest to share your family history photos and stories? You might be surprised at the connection you can make with other genealogists as well as far-flung family members! One of the challenges in for the family historian is handling family photos and mementos and the question of “what do I do with it now that it’s scanned?” Using social media pinning sites such as Pinterest, What Was There, History Pin and even Google Maps allows you to not only share your family history photos, but you never know who will find your content and what connections you could make!

You can register here for free to watch the webinar live and be eligible for door prizes. I expect the webinar will be available to watch for free for about a week. After that, it will be available for subscribers only.

As for Pinterest, here are my Genealogy à la carte Pinterest boards. No need to register to take a look at them. They’re free.
