I just discovered a great free online resource for searching archived USA based small town newspapers (news, photos, obituaries, etc) via the website of archiving company Small Town Paper’s website. It’s definitely worth checking out!

Comment on How NOT to start a genealogy blog by JL

You’re doing fine. Here’s the problem: When you start there are so many things you can’t learn except by doing and that just takes time. When I started I knew absolutely nothing about having a website. I only knew that I wanted to try. So, over the past six years, I’ve made big messes in public, embarrassed myself repeatedly, alienated some people no doubt, made other people wonder why such an idiot came online (no doubt) and so on. Some people have left, some people have been forgiving and stuck with me, new people have come on board. I’m still a little teeny baby blogger wondering what it’s all about. The learning never ends.

One suggestion I’ve heard is to give yourself certain times each day to read email and check social networks, in between 25 or 30 minute blocks of focused time for working. That way you don’t feel deprived while you’re trying to get some work done.

If I set a timer for 30 minutes and pick ONE thing to work on, I just go full steam ahead and usually don’t want to quit when the bleeper goes off because I’ve got momentum on my side by that time. But it’s a good time to take a break anyway (and sneak in an email or two) before another work session, as long as there’s a limit to it.
