Dan Lawyer has written an article that will be of interest to many genealogists. In fact, I would suggest that it be required reading for programmers who write genealogy software.
Dan states that, when entering data in most genealogy programs, "the user experience and complexity is on par with filing your taxes." He then goes on to list his "Top 10 Innovations Needed in (Genealogy) Record Managers."
For those who do not recognize the name Dan Lawyer, he is a product manager in the Family History Department of the LDS Church. He gets to look at and evaluate a lot of genealogy software. Before joining the Family History Department, Dan spent the last 14 years defining products, managing product lines, and helping bring software and services to market around the world.
