I've mentioned your post on my Genealogy Leftovers blog in '<a href="http://genie-leftovers.blogspot.com/2011/05/attending-genealogy-conferences.html" rel="nofollow">Attending Genealogy Conferences</a>', where I talked about why I love genealogy conferences, how organisers can entice me to attend, how I save money, cheaper accommodation, etc.Judy Websterhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02331380147873608965noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-26204193.post-4916524118798361242011-05-06T11:39:16.994-07:002011-05-06T11:39:16.994-07:00I have not attended too many conferences and the o...I have not attended too many conferences and the ones I have were local (Chicago area). I am going to FGS in September and planned that last fall so I could put away my pennies. I do agree the hotel and food prices are outrageous. I actually decided to cancel my reservation at the FGS Hilton and am staying a few miles away at the Ramada. Cheaper even having to pay for daily parking at the Hilton plus continental breakfast. <br /><br />I did sign up for a couple lunches because I need the info and to network. <br /><br />Would love to meet you in person with the other Geneabloggers who attend.Jennifer Holikhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14376766797515931160noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-26204193.post-23409269541729368672011-05-06T11:18:35.355-07:002011-05-06T11:18:35.355-07:00I'm glad you mention that Jamboree will be doi...I'm glad you mention that Jamboree will be doing live streaming video for some talks with the presentation archived for persons that could not attend the conference. I can't go this year and it's killing me so at least I will have the opportunity to take in portions of the conference after the fact.Michelle Goodrumhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03427355155193196767noreply@blogger.com
