I am forwarding this from another list for any of you that might be
interested.

This is so neat! You can upload your family file to RootsWeb for free!
And, boy, is it great! I just uploaded and it only took a few minutes.
You have the option to include "more about" notes or not, you can
include your sources or not, you can "clean" the info on your living
folks---many options available.
First, you need to set up an account, so you can upload your file, and
later, to edit it (which I just did, also). Then, send it up! So easy
and so fast. It took HOURS to send it to the Family Tree Maker site.
Just minutes at RootsWeb, and it's much more complete.
Also, you can add "post-ems" to anyone's data, and you can be notified
when someone adds a post-em to yours, so that you can connect.
This is brand new, just got started yesterday, I think. There may be a
few bugs yet, but there's a message board where the fellow taking care
of the GEDs is posting responses to the suggestions. And he is fast.
What a great idea! Now we can all connect so much easier and FREE!
I can't wait to get some more databases online. Spread the word!
