GenFriends-Virtual Conferences-The Pros and Cons



The panel Melissa Barker, Dan Earl, Laura Hedgecock, Mary Kircher Roddy and I get together to discuss their recent experience at the Virtual Genealogical Association Conference. With in-person events being canceled, what are the pros and cons of meeting virtually? How can attending be a benefit to you and your society? What are the plusses for speakers?

Watch as we discuss the success of learning online and the fun of breakout rooms to meet up with old friends and make new ones and share our thoughts about the answers to these questions. What are the pros and cons? We mostly found pros!
