Just wanted to pass along an email I received regarding a free genealogy software. I've downloaded it, and it seems awesome & worth a bit of time. Hopefully more folks will use it, and start sharing their info! Hope some of you find it useful!

GedLink is a new project (started last May) aiming at CONNECTING people researching on their family in a very SIMPLE and EFFICIENT way. Give GedLink a family name, and see instantly on a world map if someone has information about it... At this time, more than 10000 people in 56 countries are participating and testing the project, sharing more than 3 million names in a database you can search in. Most of the current testers come from Canada, France, Germany and we would appreciate to welcome more people from the U.S.A., the U.K., Australia, new Zealand (or from any other country!). I invite you to read the information at www.gedlink.com <http://www.gedlink.com> on why to participate and how to share your data. I hope you'll find it easy to use. Feel free to contact me, Regards, Olivier Hergault -GedLink Project- P.S. Though you may read that you can become a member and pay a low annual fee to support this project, this is NOT mandatory. GedLink is basically FREE OF USE. Since GedLink is relatively new, we still consider it a beta program, so feel free to send us your comments and suggestions. We are constantly improving it !
