Hi Karen, Really loved your note about “Changes at Ancestry.com” - this would be great feedback to give to them. I’ve worked in Marketing and Management most of my career and this is the type of key insight that big companies pay a lot of Market Research money for just to get! I’m sure the management and Ancestry would love to hear what you have to say - you never know - they may take it into consideration. Many times decisions get made without hearing enough from “the customer”. Regarding the rationale for all the linking to Facebook however, it’s a way to indirectly promote Ancestry and Fold3 to your network as if you find something on Ancestry then post it to Facebook, those people will se that your doing stuff on Ancestry and that, in a way, promotes and creates awareness of the Ancestry product. I’ve noticed they’ve been doing a lot of TV advertising lately. TB advertising is very costly and “viral marketing” such as mentions of the product in status updates on Facebook costs them nothing so many companies encores social media these days. To the extent that TV advertising can be lessened and cheaper forms of marketing like social media be leveraged, this helps keeps costs down (or at least not inflationary). Anyway, just wanted to say I enjoyed what you wrote and i personally agree that while Facebook has merit for sharing things with friends and family, it NOT a place to do genealogy and agree they should be kept as separate platforms.

Had read earlier that either they or Google was looking to buy. I've seen a real push on every page trying to get us to submit info to Facebook and other "social" pages. Facebook is not best place for genealogy. To much 'other' stuff going on there - in my case most? friends, family, and acquaintences not interested much geneaolgy (maybe when they get older they will). > > I'm very disappointed in the direction ancestry.com appears to be going having always enjoyed them in the past - my peaceful haven & refuge away from the rest of the world & it's cares. It was a secure feeling like having a private 'club' seperated from the rest of the internet world, but now with all these "social" network links being added to every ancestry page & a push for us to be continually interact the outside world (these SOCIAL SITES) it makes me feel very unconfortable. > > We are a unique people (many older) in our love & deep interest in family who are no longer among the living. Many of our ancestors who have passed, we know little of if anything yet we will put many concentrated hours & much focus, deep study, and searching as we learn about them and build our trees.? We need our own separate corner of the web like ancestry.com has always been in the past for these interests & pursuits rather than a social website like Facebook which is basically a free for all for the living & all about the LIVING where we research & study the DEAD ... big difference ... the workings of the two websites as 'one' do not co-mingle together well. On FaceBook too many distractions like pop up messages about other things etc. > > Yes, Facebook is nice in it's right place, like for me it's popping in to see what the kids & grand-kids are doing & seeing new pictures etc - love that. But we're kind of like a Professor with our deep family research & study, then to be thrown into Facebook would be like being thrown on to the basketball court. Kind of hard to explain but believe many of you know what I'm trying to say. > > > ~ Karen > > ? > > On Friday, June 6, 2014 9:32 AM, Joyce Gaston Reece <bjreece@bellsouth.net> wrote: > > >> >> >> The article Joy sent the link for tells what they are doing.?
