Hi Grant. I have been with Genes for years,through it have found many family member albeit distant but family nonetheless. I also have my tree on it. I think it is worth subscribing .

What would your main purpose for joining be: putting your tree online, trying to connect with other people or looking up records? I've been a subscriber to GR for quite a while and have found it moderately useful and have had people contacting me regarding the part of my tree which is online. One of the downsides is that about 20% of the messages I send don't get a reply, but I guess people don't renew their sub or move email addresses, so hey ho... I haven't used GR for looking up records so can't comment on how good that part of the site is. I would say it was good for dipping into every now and again to see if a name you are interested in is 'out there somewhere'. Anyway, I haven't yet reached the point where I don't think I'm not getting value for money.
