SCGS Featured on "FGS My Society" Internet Radio Program

SCGS was honored to be the guest on the new Internet radio program, "My Society" on May 21. Drew Smith and George G. Morgan, The Genealogy Guys, conducted the interview, and they did such a great job. They made it fun and relatively painless, and I want to thank both of them for being such warm and reassuring hosts.

I hope it provides you an insight to the development of technology solutions at SCGS.

If you missed it, you can hear the interview here:

SCGS is a member of the Federation of Genealogical Societies, which sponsored the "My Society" radio program.

Enjoy!
