[Rada · Rating 5 out of 5]

This book was amazing. It helps you use technology in totally new ways; to not only find your ancestors, but to find them quickly. It will help you break through those brick walls we all have in our family trees. It helped me make an igoogle page totally devoted to genealogy and it keeps me organized and all my tools at my finger tips, and there is so much more! Everyone should read this book.

A good reference manual with the ins and outs for using Google for genealogical purposes, as the title suggests. This manual certainly helped me understand how to use Google as a tool for my research purposes.

This one is a keeper! It clearly removed the scariness of technology and made me feel confident in my ability to use.
