FamilySearch Developers Conference 2008 presentations now available online

For those who missed the recent Family Search Developers Conference you can now listen to audio and watch slideshows from the conference presentations. Good stuff! I'd love to see the same done for the FHT presentations.

My favorite part of these conferences is the "hallway track," where I'm able to meet and talk with others who are enthusiastic about challenges in family history technology.

If you're interested in this kind of stuff here are some other forums you might be interested in:

• BeyondGen Google Group - "a place to talk about things like innovation, genealogy data models, user interfaces, interoperability, new software and sites, and so on."
• Evidentiary Document Model Google Group - Discussing "a model, which would allow us to describe historical documents in a normalized fashion."
• FamilySearch Forum - Discussing the new FamilySearch system
• GenealogyXML Yahoo Group - Discussing "the use of XML for storing, displaying, and exchanging genealogical data."

Enjoy!
