Your Life in a NutshellGet the Flash Player to see this player.
Claire Goose talks about her ideas for using Your Year in a Nutshell. Lots of us have vague plans to record our life story, all the little details that we may never have shared with anyone. But that first blank page can be very daunting. Many other people are involved in family research and have lots of files and pictures from the past, but lack personal information about their ancestors' hopes and dreams, about what their day-to-day life was like as they grew up. Maybe it’s a bit of an ego trip, but there must be a fascination in telling your own story for future generations! We have created literally hundreds of questions for you to answer designed to get you thinking, researching and uploading, to build a comprehensive record of your life, to create an archive for future generations. Follow our prompt questions – there are literally hundreds, from those about first memories and school days to family relationships and aspirations – that will get you thinking, and remembering things you probably never even knew you’ve forgotten! And as you can upload anything from pictures and video to recorded sound and scanned documents, you’ll have a full and absorbing record as you build up your life story. It’s great fun doing extra research online to fill in the gaps – visit your old school website to see how things have changed; and share files securely with others so they can help fill in the gaps. It’s a great way to complement to genealogy or family research, and as the record builds, what a wonderful gift to pass down the family. You could even start a new Nutshell for a baby, recording and storing first words, wobbly steps and day-to-day achievements, as a unique gift for them when they’re old enough to understand (not to mention a great way to embarrass them when their friends come round).
