Thanks for indexing the blog posts,and the mention, too! What a great history of RootsTech 2013! In a collaborative effort, may the picture be complete :-) I love it!

I'm considerably more opinionated than the rest of the geneabloggers you've linked to, Randy. But here's a link to my blog: http://geneginny.blogspot.com/ Ginny in Seattle

Thanks for the mention on your list. I'm finally able to sit down and read all the RootsTech blogs by other bloggers. Its a good way to catch up on all the sessions and workshops I missed because I just can't figure out how to clone myself to see everything!

Thank you for the update for RootsTech. While I was not there in person, I did enjoy the conference from viewing the live streaming presentations to the facebook posts, especially those with pictures. You can find my observations about viewing the conference from afar at GopherGenealogy@blogspot.com

Thanks, Randy for compiling this list, I was wondering how I was going to find what everyone had written about RootsTech, and now I don't have to worry, they're all right here!

Thanks for the mention to, I really appreciate it! It was great meeting you this weekend! Keep up the good work!

Randy,

Saw your (Not So) Wordless Wednesday today, so I took a look at your 2013 RootsTech compendium. I did have a post about it that you might want to add: "Thoughts on RootsTech 2013", 22 Mar 2013, http://www.beholdgenealogy.com/blog/?p=1302
