Geneoloblog.--70

My first three attempts at getting the computer to use facial recognition software for a celebrity collage couldn't find any results for me. When I did a set of three more all in a batch, two of them actually worked. So I guess perseverance is the watchword. My result can be found right here on the blog. (Immediately prior to Geneoblog--69 entry.)

Thoughts on what people are doing on footnote: more than anything, it looked to me like a combination of the kind of randomness I expect to find on facebook with the kinds of genealogically relevant data-sharing my wife periodically mentions running into on ancestry.com. (Which itself has been a mix of valuable information and obnoxious harassment.)
