I'm giving starter session on family history to an old friend tomorrow. I think I've got most of the on-line sources (they've worked for me over the last 10 years). But is there a world in Twitter and Facebook or is that just for kids and rioters?

Any newsgroups, apart from this one, with any useful discussion - his family is all English - Midlands mainly?

Check if there are any local FHSs in his area which have published transcripts.

Yes - I have used microfiche from Oxford FHS but no longer have the big machine to read them - I don't suppose microfiche is used at all now. So they will produce CDs no doubt.
