If you were like thousands of genealogists and me yesterday, you were unable to watch the beginnning of Joshua Taylor’s presentation at 1:00 p.m. Eastern time.
I had signed in early and was waiting for the presentation to start when the system crashed. RootsTech tweeted: “We’re so sorry! The demand is so big for the live stream that our servers are completely overloaded. We’re working on it.” Sigh, it isn’t easy being an overwhelming success.
Fortunately, the technical wizards had the website up and running a few minutes later, and I was able to watch the excellent presentation.
Keeping my fingers crossed about the number of people who will want to watch today’s live streaming, here is the schedule with links to two available handouts. The times presented are in Mountain time, so you may need to calculate for your own time zone.
