Hello List I have just received this email of UKGID, the main feature I thought you would be interested in is that they have just launched an Australia version www.ausgid.com From memory I don't think it is a free site, but I do remember paying about $5 to join a site, it could have been this one. I think it is worth the few dollars Cheers Melissa CHAPMAN - Leicestershire Eng, CHILDS - Australia & Hampshire Eng, COLE - Australia & Kent/Sussex Eng, GANNON - Australia & Ireland, HOGARTH (in Australia only), HOUGAARD - Denmark, HOOK - Australia & Kent Eng, LANGTON - Australia & Leicester Eng, SKINNER - Australia & Kent Eng, MONKTON/MONCKTON- Australia & Kent Eng. > Subject: News from The UK Genealogy Interests Directory (www.ukgid.com) > > Dear Melissa Skinner , > > Some new features have recently been added to the www.ukgid.com website. > These include: > > Surname Forums - A way to discuss and ask questions about a surname > publically. > > Improved messages inbox - You can now filter messages according to > interest, > or sender. > > Improved messages outbox - You can now tell if a recipient has read an > email > because the envelope symbol now changes to an open envelope. > > We have also launched the first version of the Australian Genealogy > Interests Directory website at www.ausgid.com. > > Many other small improvements have been made to the site, and more are in > the pipeline. > > Please revisit the site and let me know about any errors or problems you > find. > > > Regards, > www.ukgid.com > No virus found in this outgoing message. > Checked by AVG Free Edition. > Version: 7.1.385 / Virus Database: 268.4.1/313 - Release Date: 15/04/2006
