Subject: Social Security Death Index and "Post-em" Notes

POST-EMs. Now you can attach a message to any of the more than
61 million records in the Social Security Death Index (SSDI) at
RootsWeb by using a "post-em," developed by RootsWeb's own Randy
Winch. Some suggested uses: attach notes to the records of your
relatives, providing researchers with a direct link to you; add
background information on an individual in the database, such
as pointers to other records relating to that individual; or
add a correction to an incorrect record. Check the records of
individuals of interest to you often. Someone recently might
have left a note there for you. To add a note to a record, do
a search and click on "Post-em" at the end of a record at:
<http://ssdi.genealogy.rootsweb.com/cgi-bin/ssdi.cgi>;.

Post-ems are a another example of your contributions at work. Consider
supporting RootsWeb.
