Hi folks,
Just thought I would offer to help anyone who might not be familiar with
GenConnect for queries. If you have not heard about GenConnect and want to
see what a query board looks like:
http://cgi.rootsweb.com/~genbbs/genbbs.cgi/USA/Pa/Somerset
stop by my web board -- note this is active - so do not post a query unless
you happen to be researching in Somerset County <g!>.
All GenConnect queries are indexed into Surname Helper -- the same as Query
Express.
There are disadvantages to using GenConnect -- mainly the fact that you
cannot customize your web board to match your site, and the queries are
stored on RootsWeb and not in your local directory.
But for hands free maintenance you just cannot beat this system. It is easy
to use and allows the cc the opportunity to have an interactive
query/response system for their county.
Cheers!
