a couple of thoughts

First thought, I will never utter another word about Who Do You Think You Are on this blog. I am oversaturated and have lost interest. Despite my irritation that the subjects keep going around talking about the importance of doing family research yet having the actual work done by professionals I will continue to watch the show but my comments will not pollute the bandwidth of my few regular readers. For good measure though, having a show about “finding your roots” and not have the subjects actually do research is akin to making a Survivor contestant watch someone eat a rat and tell them about it.

Second thought, I was taking a look at my Google Analytics and Feedburner accounts and was excited to see that I actually have people reading my stuff… not thousands of people but a few hundred and I actually have a few dozen people that subscribe to my rss feed. So I wanted to say thank you to those that have stopped by more than once!

Last thought, I have a few themes planned for the coming weeks. Not the stuff everyone else is doing. So once I start please let me know what you think. I want to entertain others and not just myself.

    Michael,

    I appreciate your decision not to discuss WDYTYA on the blog. Regardless of what one thinks about the show, there is only so much to say about it, and it is all over my Google Reader already. Besides, the focus of my blog is not really aligned with discussing WDYTYA — or other media mentions of genealogy, or any new records sources, or affiliate linking programs. This doesn’t stop the hopefuls and enthusiastics from contacting me, and I appreciate their fervor, but unfortunately these topics will just not make it onto my site.

    I look forward to seeing what you have planned though! Now I’m curious…

    Regards,

    Katrina
