i was reading an interesting article in the April/May 2011 issue of Internet Genealogy magazine.
“Five ways to use social media to find your family”There’s several good tips, here’s my favorites:
- use Twitter to ask short questions about people/items your looking for. Add a hashtag like #surnames or #SurnameSaturday to help tag your tweet for the public search engine.
- got online, public photo galleries (Flickr, Picassa) of ancestral photos? Tag your photos with surnames so search engines like Google can pick them up.
