Here are my favourite blog posts from the last week.

The Genealogy’s Star blog has a post called “Spending Money on Genealogy” which looks at different few points on how we spend money on our passion. The post makes you think about what you spend in the pursuit of ancestors.

The Family Recorder has a post called “Webinar try-out” where she is the first to do a presentation using the webinar format at The National Archives. I am looking forward to watching the webinars. I have been an avid listener to the podcasts that The National Archives produce and seeing the speaker as well as the slides will be a wonderful bonus.

The Irish Genealogy News blog has a post entitled “More Belfast, Dublin & Sligo papers added to BNA.” This is very good news for those doing Irish research. Newspapers are a wonderful resource.
