1) If you have your family tree research in a Genealogy Management Program (GMP), whether a computer software program or an online family tree, figure out how to find how many persons, places, sources, etc. are in your database (hint: the Help button is your friend!).
2) Tell us which GMP you use, and how many persons, places, sources, etc. are in your database(s) today in a blog post of your own, in a comment to this blog post, or in a Facebook status or Google+ stream comment."
I decided to do this because I was suddenly curious about my statistics and because it was easy.
Now I know why I don't remember where I found things, or who all my ancestors are. It is imperative that I keep better records too. Thanks Randy for this fun project.
I used RootsMagic 4 for this project.
