GenealogyNEXT Blog discusses the intersection of technology and genealogy

MOUNT TABOR, NJ, USA — MARCH 9, 2010 — Origins Genealogy Services announces the launch of its new blog titled GenealogyNEXT at http://genealogynext.wordpress.com. The past few years has seen dramatic changes in the way genealogists and family historians approach their research — from the World Wide Web to mobile devices and social media — and the GenealogyNEXT blog intends to explore these changes.

"I've always had a great interest in technology, the internet and gadgets. More and more these things are impacting how family historians locate, share and preserve research findings," said Joseph Mann, owner of Origins Genealogy Services. "My passion for genealogy has led me to explore places where technology can help us research better or in new and interesting ways, so this blog is mostly about the intersection of tech and family history — of course I may stray from time to time onto topics of general family history and some stories from my own personal research."

The GenealogyNEXT blog is already underway with postings and Origins Genealogy Services invites comments and suggestions on topics to discuss in the blog. Readers may also subscribe to receive new posts for free via email or pick up the RSS feed for the blog at http://genealogynext.wordpress.com/feed/

Plans to Serve Genealogy Societies and Individual Researchers

MOUNT TABOR, NJ, USA — NOVEMBER 24, 2009 — Origins Genealogy Services announces the launch of the company's web site and commencement of business operations. Origins Genealogy Services provides genealogy research and media services to individual family historians and researchers as well as to genealogy and historical societies who need help developing a web presence. Origins Genealogy Services specializes in Hudson, Essex and Morris County, New Jersey local research but also performs certain kinds of research for other locales.

Combining research ability with web and graphic design expertise, the company puts a special focus on providing media services related to sharing and preserving genealogy findings. These include: DVD & CD presentations, Website development, family history publishing through printed and e-books, virtual memorials and photo restoration.

The owner of Origins Genealogy Services, Joseph Mann, has over 17 years of experience creating award-winning print and electronic materials for ad agencies and corporations as well as deep involvement in genealogy and local history research.

Joseph commented about the launch saying: "Like many people with an interest in genealogy, I got started at an early age, researching my own family history since 8th grade, and later helping others research their own ancestry. At the same time I spent many years in Creative Director and graphic design roles creating print, web and multimedia content for business. Starting a business that combines those two loves was a natural evolution that made perfect sense. I'm excited about using my experience in these areas to help both individuals researching their family heritage and also to aid genealogy/historical societies where there seems to be a tremendous unmet need for professional media support."
