Mocavo Fireside Chats

Mocavo has been offering "Fireside Chats" for their "Mocavo Plus" members, but according to the latest newsletter they will be opening these web chats to everyone. Here's the blurb from Mocavo:

"Over the last few months, we've received overwhelmingly positive feedback surrounding our Mocavo Gold Fireside Chat series. As we start the New Year, we want to thank you for your continued support of our Free Forever mission. Today, in appreciation, we are excited to offer our Fireside Chats to the entire genealogy community for free, forever!

Every other week Chief Genealogist Michael J. Leclerc interviews leading genealogists to discuss all aspects of family history. Tune in to get free advice and helpful research tips that will take your research to the next level. You will also have the opportunity to get your very own family history questions answered by these expert genealogists during the chat."

Several past "chats" are available for viewing on the website. The next scheduled presentation is January 15, 1:00 EST, when Michael will interview Thomas MacEntee from GeneaBloggers.com for the first Mocavo Fireside Chat of 2014. Thomas MacEntee is a genealogy professional specializing in the use of technology and social media to improve genealogy research.

Michael and Thomas will discuss what the future may hold for technology and genealogy as well as how to start your own genealogy blog.

It seems that these broadcasts are in conflict with the Legacy webinars, but both sites allow viewing following the presentations.

www.mocavo.com/fireside will take you to the chat site.
