His management should be fairly immediate so let's all > welcome him back. Thank you. Once I receive confirmation from the Pennsylvania USGenWeb coordinator as the new Snyder County PAGenWeb coordinator, I'll communicate with all of you on the mailing list to let you know my vision and direction for the site. Andy has done a fine job building upon the foundation I laid when I was the first to adopt the site and create the basic web pages. Now I have a better grasp of my time and a much better grasp of HTML and websites in general. Since Rootsweb is being subsidized by Ancestry.com (for better or worse is not the issue at hand), the server has added many new databases and search engines. Some of what they're doing is being duplicated on the Snyder County site, and thus needlessly compounds the amount of time the coordinator must put into updating the site. So one of the first things I'll do is catalog those duplicated efforts, move them to the proper Rootsweb service, and provide links to them on the Snyder County site. We're sorry to see Andy go, but life is full of twists and turns and he needed to respond to those offered to him in his life's journey. Thanks Andy for a job well done! You have implemented some great ideas for the site. > I thank everyone who emailed me about > volunteering your help with the site; the response was very > positive, especially in the short time the offer was out there! For those you who responded to Andy's request for volunteers, I would like for you to communicate with me privately at mailto:asta2001@yahoo.com and share with me your vision and ideas for enhancement. Grace and peace. ===== Logan Garth Swanger 204 E Middle St Hanover PA 17331-2527 asta2001@yahoo.com Member: National Genealogical Society, Union County (PA) Historical Society, Snyder County (PA) Historical Society (Life Member), South Central Pennsylvania Genealogical Society, Schwanger Family Association __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!?
