Jun 30, 2013 at 2:26 comment added Luke_0 Mod @lkessler Thanks. Good catch. I've been thinking about asking some of these bloggers to write another something up about the site. A little more publicity wouldn't hurt and sometimes people just have to hear about something multiple times before they actually do anything.
Jun 30, 2013 at 2:21 comment added lkessler @Luke - I rolled back your edit. The link you gave: blog.dearmyrtle.com/2012/08/an-independent-genealogy-site.html was Myrt posting about our site when it was still at Area 51 and we were attempting to get to beta. I had contacted Myrt after that in November once our site was in beta. She did not post anything from that correspondence.

Feb 15, 2013 at 22:07 comment added lkessler @Canadian- Probably worth while to make that a new meta question - re RootTech and coordinate it there.
Feb 10, 2013 at 21:10 comment added Canadian Girl Scout I'm going to Roots Tech 2013. There are supposed to be 4,000+ registrants... What/How exactly do you want someone to 'lead publicity' at a conference? Am I supposed to post notes to bulletin boards or something?

Feb 4, 2013 at 12:27 comment added Jeni Don't forget to 'think outside the box' - sites like Find A Grave are not 'genealogy' sites, but have many with genealogy questions. Forums on sites like these are a way to publicize this site.

Nov 15, 2012 at 20:22 comment added Duncan genealogy.stackexchange.com/questions/2073/… mentions two websites that seem like good communities to 'get the word to'. If there are any established participants from genealogy.se, they might know how to go about doing that.

Oct 26, 2012 at 2:08 comment added lkessler @Robert - Thanks for making it Community Wiki. It is no longer possible for us to do that ourselves.

Oct 24, 2012 at 19:46 comment added user47 @Duncan I hadn't thought of that concern. This is where it's nice to have moderators. I've seen it where users post answers then moderators take the information and put it into the question and delete the answer. But we can't do that until we have moderators.
Oct 24, 2012 at 18:11 comment added Duncan per comments above, I deleted my answer. But I can't edit the question to add another one to the list. @lkessler, could you add that I contacted the Francis Cooke Society membership.
Oct 24, 2012 at 13:13 comment added Luke_0 @Duncan You must have a Google+ account to view it.

Oct 24, 2012 at 12:01 comment added user47 @Duncan Rules are different for meta. 1) there is no rep to be earned, it's inherited from the main site. 2) List questions are allowed and often encouraged to promote voting. That being said, I don't think we need separate answers for this "question".
