Sustaind.org is sick. :( If you're a PHP programmer, can you help us upgrade Sustain'd and get it working again? If interested, email richard AT moregoodfoundation DOT org.


You can go to this site to volunteer to work on the indexing projects. It's very cool-- online training, and software you download to use on your own computer at home. They give you a manageable chunk to work on at a time, maybe one page of a census. Then when you're done, you can get another if you want. No microfilms, no going off to the Family History Center. And a bonus-- the software works on a Mac.

I've been doing this for several months now, it's addicting... :)

It all runs on Java, which means it works with Linux too. However, the Mac and Linux platforms are not officially supported, but at least they still run.

I've been playing around with the software a little bit. Some of the work and handwriting deciphering is difficult, but it is kind of fun work.
