Genealogy Research Resources at Diigo

Reference Materials at World Vital Records

I've recently posted links to state historical societies (Eastern States, Middle States, and Western States) Hardboundbooks and also an article with other resource links.  After a couple of these posts, Denise Olson from Family Matters and Moultrie Creek commented about her Genealogy Research Resources at Diigo.  I finally visited, registered at Diigo, and joined Denise's group.  Once I joined, I was amazed at all of the resource links Denise has accumulated.  As of this morning, there are 624 bookmarks and usually multiple links within each bookmark.  It's too early in the morning, and I haven't had enough coffee, to focus enough and count all the links, but take my word for it - there are lots. 

All of the bookmarks are tagged by general subject so it's easy to find the your area of interest.  The best part of Diigo and the Genealogy Research Resources group is it's a collaborative environment - if you have some unique resource links you can add them to the group so everyone can make use of them.  I think this is an incredible site, and Denise has put great effort into creating and adding most of the current links.  Check it out - I know you will find this group a great genealogy/history resource.

Tim,

Please don't give me all the credit. Every member can add bookmarks - and more value - to the group. The beauty of this system is that none of it is dependent on one person or a small group of people. Everyone is welcome to join and contribute.

There are so many sites with valuable content that we need all the eyes we can get to find and catalog them for the benefit of the entire genealogy community - and it takes only a minimal effort on anyone's part to contribute.

Life is good!
