If there is no control over who can change what I believe you would be opening the web site up for total disaster. It would be bad enough just with members of the group. A simple error could delete a lot of information. But let's look at a worse case. What happens if a person who is mean enough to develop and send out a virus, but isn't smart enough, finds the site and just to be mean they start deleting information. That's not bad enough, they start adding information of the type that shouldn't be on a web site. I'm sure keeping the web site up is a huge job, but I don't think going from full (almost) control to no control is the answer. I think the best bet is to find someone in each family group to work on that families page. If no one from a give group will accept their family page, maybe you can find someone from another group who will do it. If not that family's page stops growing. No, I wasn't volunteering. There are several programs that don't require HTML to design web pages. All people need to do is look around a little.

I have come across a program called Wiki. I think it would be great to use for our familys genealogy purposes. I am going to check with freepages to see if I can use it on their pages since they are free (the program is also free). An example would be, say you open Joseph Barrett's website and you see where there is a mistake, all you would have to do is click an edit button and change the error, then click save, no html is involved. We could all add our own research.We could just add the date and our name and source when we add data.
