* genealogy loves technology: family history trends & infographic from archives.com 

DateWed, February 2, 2011 at 9:35 PM

Archives.com released their analysis of how innovative technology is leading to"extraordinary growth" within the genealogy and family history industries. This is really interesting research!!

I just don't understand- why aren't younger generations as involved with genealogy and family history? Especially since they are actively using/creating/influencing these new programs and technologies!

Right--young people are not yet interested. Anything to do with "history" is probably not that interesting to them. But the more technology works its way into the search process, the more they will be entering the trend. First they will help their older friends and family with the tech aspects, or they will look at the business angles, and finally they will get hooked on the searching.
