Here is The Bridge recording, and some of the notes. Thank you to those who were able to come and contribute.
Objectives of The Bridge
- Grow in a way to influence more people
- Open communication channels to merge resources
- A place to collect best practices
- A place to create excitement in contributing to the family tree
Needs
1 - To have a symbiotic relationship with FamilySearch, various Operations (such as NAO's), BYU, etc.
- Need to find a way to get the results of our meetings back to FamilySearch so they can get ideas from us
- What Tools can FamilySearch provide for us to be able to help us extend our reach (and in turn their reach)
2 - To create more conversations with the public in our social media groups
- We need to be willing to share what we are doing, and to get others to talk
3 - Helpful to have FamilySearch create a simple tool that we can take to the public to make family history work/tree building less intimidating. Something that doesn’t require logging in. See example: http://connectedtempe.surge.sh/
Structure of the meeting
- 15 minutes – guest talks about their project
- 40 minutes – how can we adapt that project to our area?
- Guests can be us, or those we have invited
- The Bridge group will talk with each other in FB and FS community groups about ideas for guests and topics
