I'll still probably put pictures on Facebook, because that's an easy way for my cousins and me to exchange pictures and identify people for one another, but I'll be more careful about posting research and document transcripts.Greta Koehlhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05429623811794360612noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5324800784948486726.post-30783734364130732472009-02-21T09:28:00.000-08:002009-02-21T09:28:00.000-08:00I wish Facebook would just get it together and sto...I wish Facebook would just get it together and stop trying to own our stuff. But then again, anything on the internet will pretty much be there forever and even if copyrights exist, it is so easy to steal.<BR/>I think I'll stay on Facebook, but limit what I do there. I can easily share pics and stories through email.<BR/>Great post!Elysehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15483136317329166274noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5324800784948486726.post-45862421800325379192009-02-20T15:55:00.000-08:002009-02-20T15:55:00.000-08:00Thanks, all, for your wonderful comments and all t...Thanks, all, for your wonderful comments and all the support you give me and other geneabloggers. JoLyn - whodathunk that this would have become such a big issue? I didn't see it coming. Lori - I'll have to make that cake when I know one of my daughters will be here to eat it with me. It looks almost as much fun to make as to eat. Judith - Scrabble, eh? Another temptation.... And Becky - Just tonight I connected with yet another cousin on FB - it's almost like the old days when my mother's family would all get together.Greta Koehlhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05429623811794360612noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5324800784948486726.post-79580842314921304282009-02-19T21:01:00.000-08:002009-02-19T21:01:00.000-08:00Well said, Greta and I feel the same way.

I'm not a professional either, but sure enjoy the contact, support, education, information, sharing, notices of new things, all the good stuff of Facebook. It's a good fit for me too. In fact it's been a blessing. I've connected with so many relatives that I was not in touch with. Love it. Thanks for a great post. I'm glad I'm your friend!Becky Thompsonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11841947942442007031noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5324800784948486726.post-42273743435813147322009-02-19T20:28:00.000-08:002009-02-19T20:28:00.000-08:00Well said.

My sisters, nieces, nephews, etc. really find it easy to keep up with one another on Facebook and several of us love to play Scrabble. In fact, Scrabble is the thing that drew us all there to begin with. But the genealogy group I've found there is an answer to prayers for me. If Facebook self-destructs we GeneaBloggers will still be able to connect, I'm sure. Right now, I'm staying.Judith Richards Shuberthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03499186334451409604noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5324800784948486726.post-893062029096245972009-02-19T19:16:00.000-08:002009-02-19T19:16:00.000-08:00Nice to meet you Greta.

People need to remember that anything they put on the internet is destined to be there forever when people save items and then they resurface later on.Lori Ehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10775116608698555225noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5324800784948486726.post-44945506754063917612009-02-19T19:12:00.000-08:002009-02-19T19:12:00.000-08:00Great post, Greta.

I've always been pretty careful what I put on Facebook, but I find it a good way to connect with people who have the same interests as me. We'll keep watching!JoLynhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18306034025158720819noreply@blogger.com
