Unlock the Past Cruise, Day 1 - Blog entry by lkessler - 11 Feb 2013
My schedule for speaking is perfect. I’m always on in the afternoon sessions, 1 p.m. to 4 pm. So technically, all my mornings and evenings are free. But I am going to attend other sessions of interest to me and also make an attempt to talk to as many genealogy people as possible. My endeavor to get ...

Unlock the Past Cruise, Day 0 - Blog entry by lkessler - 10 Feb 2013
Today we set sail. Wow! Prior to supper, we met up with Helen Smith (a genea-blogger) and Alona Tester (also a blogger, and an Unlock the Past employee who is not so secretly the daughter of Alan Phillips). It’s easy to identify each other by the green Clean Cruising lanyard we wear around our necks, which ...

Unlock the Past Cruise, Day -1 - Blog entry by lkessler - 9 Feb 2013
We’ve had a great 4 days in Sydney, enjoying summer when it should be winter, enjoying walking around in t-shirts and shorts when it should be parkas and mitts, enjoying sunshine for 14 hours when it should only be daytime for 9, seeing all the mandatory sights of the city, and shopping, shopping, shopping. ...

If there are any Behold users that can make it to downtown Sydney while we’re ...

Can Genealogy Software Be Rated Fairly? - Blog comment by lkessler - 28 Jan 2013
rodokmen:
TopTenReviews are not user-based ratings. They are comparisons of programs based on features, and the rating is effectively the decision of a person from TTR. The rating may be influenced by the popularity of the program and possibly by the affiliate commission that TTR would receive. They only ...

My Torn Achilles Tendon After Nine Weeks - Blog comment by lkessler - 28 Jan 2013
Leo:
In my case, yes I am happy I did not have the surgery. I started playing squash in December, just 4 months after, and was playing full force 2 months after that. During the summer, I rode my bike every day (skipping squash during that time). Here it is a year and a half later, and you'd be hard ...

Two Weeks to the Unlock The Past Cruise - Blog entry by lkessler - 26 Jan 2013
I’m all ready and looking forward to the Unlock the Past History & Genealogy cruise. My seven presentations are all prepared and should be interesting for those who attend my sessions. The final count is 145 people booked for the genealogy program. But it will still feel like a RootsTech type of event ...

Beta? - Forum post by lkessler in General Discussion - 18 Jan 2013
Will,
I appreciate the push - again - and your suggestion.
One good thing to let you know: I got past the "roadblock" - i.e. figuring out how to do the Life events properly. I had been bouncing back and forth on that for several months now.
The not so good thing is that there will be a bit more of a delay. ...
