Story: Introduction• Since I am going to RootsTech 2015 and teaching the Gospel Essential Class, I
thought I should do a tutorial on FamilySearch (New and Family Tree) since there is an announcement that the old new.FamilySearch.org website is being taken down publicly on February 1, 2015.
• My eldest son has used FamilySearch (new and Family Tree) more than I have since I have used my MindTouch Wiki, Excel Spreadsheets, and Spotfire Dashboards for my Family History and MyLDS.org Dashboards to complete four generations of research and temple work on both sides of my family. I also use these same tools extensively for my data science/ data journalism work with Semantic Community.
• So I am going to create a storyboard with PowerPoint slides and screen captures to help understand current use of FamilySearch.org and explain why technology is not the most important part of this. For example, having all things before me and my family and being able to print out the Temple Ready Information has been the most important feature for me recently.

Story: Conclusion For Now
• FamilySearch.org continues to evolve to provide more comprehensive tools and opportunities to a global audience of members and non-members of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints.
• I have used more comprehensive tools in my work because I am a data scientist/data journalist and wanted all things before me and my family on the Web (with confidentiality for some very sensitive and sacred content).
• I need to use by spreadsheet information to build my Family Tree in FamilySearch.org.
