REVIEW:Ravers We all remember what it was like to be a teenager: constant self-awareness, self-importance, self-doubt, self-love, self-centeredness, and a relentless urge for self-exploration.

REVIEW: 3.5 stars to #Ravers @nationaltheatre.org.uk #Connections2025

'A big old teen (sober) dance party that had the audience bopping to the beat.'

#Connections2025 is in the pocket. What a great event it was! Compliments to the organization and to all who contributed to this #genealogy event in Brisbane, Australia.
It was good to see old friends again, to expand my network of genealogists.

It was pleasure and an honour to serve as the #NSW Ambassador for #Connections2025 #Australasian #familyhistory & #localhistory event in #Brisbane .

Here is a happy snap with Conference Convenor, David Barnes, and fellow Ambassadors (minus @travelgenee.bsky.social ) from #Australia and #NewZealand

Thanks to those who attended my presentation at #Connections2025 yesterday. I appreciated your support, input and kind words.

Fabulous and thought provoking keynote from Nick Barratt to close #Connections2025

Food for thoughts on #genealogy.
First there was data, from original sources. Then there was user generated content. Next was DNA and online connectivity. Currently it is generative AI. How do we know which data is authentic? (Derived from Nick Barratt's talk at #Connections2025)

Future casting with Nick Barrett for the last session of #connections2025. Dystopia or Utopia ?#genealogy #familyhisory #GSQ #AFFHO

What does a historian know about the future? Nick Barratt is telling us now. "The future of family history in the digital age." It's the last session of #Connections2025. #genealogy
