on Jan 25th, 2007Geni - make your family tree 2.0 style
First it was Organisational Charts and now its relatives. I just love what Geni has to offer. Its a method of cataloguing and making family trees and the concept just rocks. Just add your name , your fathers name and mother’s name and your email id. After this you just add your relatives and their email ids. They inturn get invited to geni to build their own tree. As the process continues the tree grows and keeps adding branches , you can navigate your entire family to see their profiles and information.
This service offers a unique service that everybody will love to use. I see great potential in this service and as the network picks ups users and the trees get bigger , you can have a really big netowrk of related people. Will take time though. The networks are private and you can only view your own network, which is a great initiative to maintain privacy.
Genealogy, I am doing!
We have read posts related to genealogy on your blog and have just launched family based social network- Kincafe. We would like you to particpate in beta release of Kincafe and provide feedback.
Thanks
