Ok, its very positive generally, although it does pull GC up on the lack of Soundex searches. It promotes the boards too and gives one of their 'tutorials' with screen shots. Surprised there's no mention of it on the Home Page here though. Maz. XX

Just home from work and looking at it too! It says that Genes is a "powerful and friendly resource." Wasn't Daniel's article meant to be in this month?

Donna the mag is 'Your Family Tree'. Joy - no, surprise surprise!! I assume they just did a little trial membership and whizzed round it for a day or so. Didn't have any interviews with Stephen, Michelle or any of us 'orrible lot. Maz. XX

Thanks. Think I may just buy it when Daniel's article is due to be in it. Although my complaint was in the main sorted out, I am still waiting for an assurance that a certain person unrelated to me will not research my family any more. I know it's not illegal but I regard it as distasteful. Joy
