Relay – A Family History Blog

I’ve been playing around (in between rebuilding the website and restoring the house – looks like a theme there) with Geni.com which is basically a collaborative genealogical workspace. Not quite a wiki and not quite family tree software, Geni.com allows you to create pedigree chart style linked family trees and share them with relatives who can add information they have. It has some bugs but also some promise. As a place to work together it sure beats sending GEDCOMs around and hoping that the relative treats speculation as speculation and facts as facts instead of the opposite. So far I have only a few collaborators but I hope to add more soon. I’ll write more after I see how this plays out.
