Although I’ve been somewhat distracted with blog problems lately, I have made some progress in the Genea-Blogger Group Games.
1. Go Back and Cite Your Sources!
I have not yet achieved the minimum of 10 citations, but I’m working on them!
2. Back Up Your Data!
I’m putting together a plan for backing up my data. This will require some revisions, since I discovered that I was not able to recreate my blog from the backup I had previously made. Lesson learned: don’t assume that your data is backed up just because you made a copy. Verify that data backups are readable or otherwise capable of doing what you want them to do.
3. Organize Your Research!
I created over 20 new data entries in my database for descendants of Nicolas Gamache. Although I had previously written about these people on my blog, I had not yet entered their information in my database.
Progress so far: BRONZE Medal
4. Write, Write, Write!
I participated in the 4th Edition of Smile for the Camera and the 54th Edition of the Carnival of Genealogy.
Progress so far: BRONZE Medal
5. Reach Out & Perform Genealogical Acts of Kindness!
I joined six Genea-Bloggers’ blog networks on Facebook
Progress so far: BRONZE Medal
I have several other tasks in progress, but time is short: just a week to go!
