    I enjoyed your information on organizing digital images in order to more easily be able to retrieve them. However, what do you do when you have too many images on your hard drive? I realize that there are programs that organize digital images and put them onto CD’s. But, I want to be able to eaily access the images associated with any given ancestor whenever I need to. Do you have any suggestions?

    My approach to genealogy computer filing is quite different than that suggested in the podcast. I understand there are different ways of grouping files but am perplexed at the naming convention of a partial surname and record type. We are no longer under an 8 character file name limit. When was this podcast made?

    Sweet blog. I never know what I am going to come across next. I think you should do more posting as you have some pretty intelligent stuff to say.

    I’ll be watching you . :)
