I've been toying with organizing the world of genealogy technology, inspired by a post at the Daily Genius. As yet it's a draft and likely always will be, just as with the periodic table of the elements.
You likely can't read the image. There's a pdf version here. You can help improve it by making suggests as a comment.

1. Replace the subtitles with URL links.
2. Make each box taller so that subtitles might be more visible.
3. Add box for WR (=WeRelate) where I am building a places database for the UK. There is already one in place for Ontario which probably needs improvement.

Where would local or larger genealogical societies fall, groups like OGS or BIFHSGO? I also wonder if a photo editing program should be included in the software section. Neat concept. Thanks John.
Interesting visualation John.
How about the free online newspapers from National Library in Singapore http://eresources.nlb.gov.sg/newspapers/default.aspx - found something on a Scottish ancestor there yesterday
Also the free Papers Past from New Zealand and the Welsh Papers at http://newspapers.library.wales/ https://paperspast.natlib.govt.nz/
All of these report on news from outside their borders.
Absolutely love it. Particularly given how completely hopeless I was at Chemistry.
You need to add the element "Ub" for Unobtainium like the maiden name of a 3rd great grandmother and all the other seemingly simple brick walls we face.
