dee_burrisThe woman who defined "famuggles" for genealogists
Ever since I read that entry on Margel's blog, I have been a disciple. (Note: even though Google simultaneously asks, Do you mean muggles? the first two results are hits on her blog...)
If she says it's good reading, I read it.
I think the famuggles in my family are really quite hopeless. In addition to getting all glassy eyed when I explain to the curious among them about the 140 year old Burris secret, mine start edging toward the nearest exit.
But it's comforting to know I am not alone.
The woman making us all ponder whether our blogs are commenter friendly.
Amy's asking some questions in this post.
I replied and then came back and made a couple of changes to the internal workings of my own blog.
And yeah, she's made it easy to comment on her entry...
Also this week, someone else was giving thought to blog comments...
Nancy gave us the results of the survey she posted in the sidebar of her blog on January 9.
One of the most detailed (and comprehensive) compilations of internet research resources I have *ever* seen
Look at Thomas MacEntee's research toolbox and see if you don't agree.
I think it's pretty neat that he and I both have bookmarks for money conversion and historic weather events, even if we don't have the same ones...
A totally cool photo post of successive generations of sisters
Susan has an outstanding blog, and I especially love her photo posts. But this one from yesterday, just really leapt off the page at me.
Maybe because I have two sisters...
