Genea-Blogger Games Wrap Up

Well, the 2008 Genea-Blogger Games are coming to a close and Thomas at Destination: Austin Family needs some time to organize the Closing Ceremonies which are scheduled for Monday.  Be sure to visit his site for all the pomp and circumstance.

My personal standings are as follows:

1. Go Back and Cite Your Sources! Nada, just couldn’t get it into gear on this one.

2.  Back Up Your Data! Completed A & C for the Silver Medal

3.  Organize Your Research! Completed A, B, D, & E for the Diamond Medal

4.  Write, Write, Write! Completed A, B & D for the Gold Medal

5.  Reach Out & Perform Genealogical Acts of Kindness! Completed A, B & C for the Gold Medal

I may not have documented the last two requirements.  They were to invite others genealogists to join Facebook and back up all of your data.  I completed those on Thursday and Friday.

It’s been fun getting to know more genea-bloggers than ever before and I can say that I had no excuses for not having any ideas for posts for the last two weeks.   I didn’t complete as many events as I was planning to but you know I had to watch the real games from time to time.  I don’t know about you but I’m exhausted.
