With the addition of Findmypast hints to Family Historian 6.2 I thought perhaps there were new users to that service who might be interested in a webinar scheduled for Wednesday. The webinar is 'no cost'. Since I am not familiar with this data service I have already registered.
Information with the url is as follows:

Re: Findmypast Webinar
Just wanted to add a note to people who are unfamiliar with Legacy Family Tree Webinars.
For most webinars, the initial broadcast is free to the public. The recording is usually posted the same day, or the day after, and is free to the public for the next 7 days.
After that, it is available by subscription to LFT Webinar members, or by purchase from the Legacy store. Handouts are for members only.
However, many of the webinars in the library are marked as free for anyone (usually the ones that involve someone from a data website explaining how the service works) and Jen's is marked as 'free'.
Jen's webinar on FindMyPast is here: http://familytreewebinars.com/download. ... nar_id=403
There is another webinar on FindMyPast coming up from Legacy in August by Brian Donovan:
Using Findmypast to Unlock Your Irish Ancestry Wednesday, August 24, 2016 6:00pm GMT

Legacy FT Webinars use Go To Webinar for the initial broadcast. I've used it on Windows, and on my Android phone -- the app is in Google's Play Store.
