No I didn't. the "or what" is that links appearing to be from the Rootsweb page you are on, may be a link that takes you to ancestry.com and the gotcha is that in order to view what you thought you were going to see for free is not free unless you become a member of Ancestry.com. Additionally Ancestry.com has free data but you have to tell them your credit card info first, wonder why. I know the answer... you learn of the trickery after you become a first time payer... -----Original Message----- From: DorPartsch@aol.com [mailto:DorPartsch@aol.com] Sent: August 11, 2006 1:25 PM To: NYOSWEGO-L@rootsweb.com Re: Perspective on selling and sharing Lauren, Just curious - did you submit your database to RootsWeb? If so it will, I think, automatically also be accessible at Ancestry.com. I, for one, am glad that RootsWeb was able to continue in existence and free due to sponsorship or support (or what?) by Ancestry.com. ~ Dori http://freepages.genealogy.rootsweb.com/~partsch/index.htm ______________________________
