Information. Genealogists and family historians are swimming in it all.of.the.time.

You have many ways of managing all of that info you consume.

What if I told you that you probably have not even begun to wrangle it all as best as you could?

Strong words, eh? A thread 🧵👇

With strong words come strong conviction.

You see, I have recently purchased the book "Building a Second Brain" by Tiago Forte (@fortelabs) and I'm so excited!

What even is a #SecondBrain?

A "#secondbrain" is a personal knowledge ecosystem you build to capture info you consume.

You build it purposefully with a goal of organizing that information, understanding that info, with intention to make it easier to re-share and present it to the world.

And isn't that what we do with our interests in #Genealogy and #FamilyHistory? From our family tree work to the way we organize our family photos & artifacts, there are many ways we can benefit.

So, how can you learn more? Keep reading....

Follow along with me as I read Tiago's book and share my key takeaways!

I'll share some insights on how what I learn can be relevant for you as a genealogist/family historian.

I'm doing a video series to share what I'm learning and how I apply it for family history work; putting my #secondbrain in action (see what I'm doing there 😉).

I invite you to follow along - my 1st video is already up - come watch! facebook.com/taneyakoonce/v…
