Starting my #RootsTech day the the technology forum. There are some great new things here, and for the 2nd time in 2 days I find myself wanting to heckle a big company to “Get to the new stuff!” Still lots of interesting things from some companies!

Here at #RootsTech again this year. Started with the FamilySearch Tech forum. Nothing earth shattering, but need to check out a couple labs. Gave feedback to the volunteers to not chat through the presentations!

I went to my first protest today. I worked as a peacekeeper. The energy in the crowd was amazing! Lots of people glad to know that there’s many people just as angry/fed-up as they are! Thanks to @indivisibletv.bsky.social for a great event! #HandsOff
