This is all very nice, but if the advertising idea doesn’t go well, and you ever shut down operations, what kind of commitment does Geni have to the users and their data? Will you agree to give a warning, and means to download the data?

Congratulations on your Series B funding. You deserve it!
There are MANY errors in the relationships of my FAMILY on the FILE column. For instance : My Father is listed as my Father but he is also listed as his own BROTHER…A NIECE is listed as a 1st.. Cousin once removed . there should be a way that we can correct such errors. I thought that when they were put in on the TREE they would correct themselves, not so. HELP
There are some interesting facts like, for example, the origin of the family which can be of interest to all the family members. Is there anyway to post such comments so that it is available to all members?
Hey! That’s great news! Congrats to all!
Good stuff! Love the service. What I miss is some kind of visual clue of who are alive/deceased in the tree. It’s hard to keep track and update the way it is now.
So if you could use a couple of dollars on that I would appreciate it!
Great news, now you can take away those Google AdSense banners!
It has been long proven that advertising on ‘social’ sites doesn’t work. I would be happy to pay for a banner-free service. And I do consider alternatives if you won’t remove the advertising.
Congrats, fellas. VC is certainly awesome.
