I know this is not exactly about genealogy, but I wanted to share two new sites with you that I think you will all find interesting.
First, officially launched today is the Portuguese American Journal at: http://portuguese-american-journal.com/ From the site: The Portuguese-American Journal (PAJ) is an online interactive publication dedicated to the Portuguese-American heritage with the purpose of informing and offering an insight into the Portuguese- American experience. New material is added to the PAJ daily. Second, a social network for people interested in all things Portuguese: http://portuguesesocial.ning.com/ >From the mission statement: We are the Portuguese individuals, organizations, and groups of the world dedicated to modernizing, transforming, and creating environments which foster cultural enjoyment and economic innovation.
