You're Invited to Attend the Ancestry Webinar on July 30, 2008

Ancestry is holding a public webinar to help educate users about the new search, and (I would hazard to guess) have a forum to answer some of the many questions and concerns that have been floating around. Here's the scoop straight from Ancestry...

There has been a lot of buzz about the new search on Ancestry.com. In the weeks since we took the new search out of Beta we’ve received great feedback from genealogists and are continuing to make changes to the search functionality. We’re holding a public webinar on Wednesday, July 30, at 8:30 pm ET for anyone who is interested in learning more about how to use the new search on Ancestry.com.

Geared toward intermediate and advanced researchers, the webinar will focus on how to use the tools in Ancestry.com’s new search:
  • Record Previews

  • Image Snapshots

  • Refined Searches

  • Type-ahead Tools

  • Global Searches

  • Advanced Searches

  • Filters

  • Keyword Searches
Kendall Hulet, Director of Product Management for Ancestry.com, will host this webinar. Kendall has worked specifically on product searches for a few years at Ancestry.com. Anyone can register to attend the webinar by visiting: http://event.on24.com/r.htm?e=112633&s=1&k=F61A5B2CBEC642037CADDF67687EA541. The webinar is open to everyone; you do not have to be a member of Ancestry.com to register for or attend the webinar.
