I've started looking at the class schedules for each day at https://rootstech.org/schedule-info/session-viewer/ and these are the classes that I most want to attend on Saturday, 8 February:
8:30 a.m. - Saturday General Session, Keynote Address -- Stephanie Nielson (NieNie Dialogues) and Todd Hansen (The Story Trek) (Hall E)
10:30 a.m. - Michael Melendez: "How to Get Youth Involved in Family History" (Ballroom F)
10:30 a.m. - Lisa Cooke: "Become an iPad Power User" (Ballroom J)
1:00 p.m. - Ron Arons: "Mapping Madness" (Room 250CF)
1:00 p.m. - Michelle Ercanbrack: "Behind the Scenes of the Ancestry Research Team" (Room 254ABC)
2:30 p.m. - Charles Knutson: "Genealogy Meets Angry Birds: Making Interfaces More Addictive" (Room 250AB)
2:30 p.m. - Alison Herzog: "How to Capture Your Living History and Honor Your Ancestors Through Instagram" (Ballroom A)
4:00 p.m. - Ron Arons: "Finding Living People on the Internet" (Ballroom J)
4:00 p.m. - Jimmy Zimmerman: "Finding Stories on Google Books" (Ballroom C)
I have these classes already starred in my RootsTech 2014 App on my iPhone.
Of course, there is no guarantee that I will attend any of these presentations (other than the keynote session). But I have good intentions! I usually hang out in the Media Center and write a blog post or two every day at RootsTech, and also walk through the Exhibit Hall several times a day asking questions and learning about new resources. I do plan to watch the Live Streaming sessions when I get home.
Are you attending RootsTech 2014? If so, which classes do you want to attend?
