If you look under the logo at the very top of the board, you will see two new links. One says MUST READ, and it is my statement on the fight against spam/trolls/harasment and how all of us need to work together to keep the trash off the site.

The 2nd link is to a page where I list blogs/websites that I use or come across that I think you might be interested in.

Be sure to check them both out!!

Some of you may wonder...why a site like this. Well I will tell you. Last year I made a myspace page for my genealogy forum and found lots of friends that have genealogy as an interest. Wednesday, I was "interviewed" about my thoughts on myspace and genealogy....did it help?

I got to thinking, nope, I've not found one piece of information or person with which to share information on myspace.

Then I got to thinking....I had seen a "myspace" type site for another hobby I'm interested in but I didnt know of one for one of the most widespread hobbies in the world. Why not have a social sight for people that were not looking to "find a date or a mate".

People that know me, know I have a passion for research and for helping other people find things and for helping other people find living relatives that might help them break down their brickwalls.

Will this work? I don't know...I have high hopes for it.

This site will be a work in progress for many weeks to come I'm sure, and suggestions are always welcome even if I might not always do what you suggest.

This is gonna be fun....yeah its gonna be fun

I also want to give a big shout out to my sister Branwyn for so very kindly doing such an awesome job on my graphics!
