Some may know that I use EasyBib to format some of the citations I use in my genealogy work. I posted about EasyBib last year (see post) and last night I had a thought — why not ask EasyBib to put their templates to use for genealogy work?
So, I sent them a tweet asking offering the suggestion and I’ve followed up with a more detailed email. Wouldn’t you like to be able to use a web-based form to format your genealogy citations in the formats suggested by Elizabeth Shown Mills? Everything from Birth/Death Certificates to FHL Microfilm? Mark posted on his ThinkGenealogy blog that Legacy 7 does this, but not everyone uses Legacy 7. I myself am more of a cloud computer and the advantages inherent with that (see Eastman’s blog post) so I think this would be cool. I think Thomas would agree with me too.
My Dream Citation Tool – EasyBib + Genealogy
Great idea! It would be sweet if they made this happen!
