I've accepted your comment so that anyone reading this blog have a choice of blogs, not just recommended by me. On a personal note, although it looks quite cool, the first thing that grabbed my attention was the example pictures in the top right corner. There are quite a few with one, what seems to me like a tokenistic image, of a non Caucasian face. I’m sure it wasn’t intentional and I’m not sure how many races should be represented through these example images on the home page. However, seeing it the way it is, didn’t sit too well with me. Thanks for the recommendation anyway Heena :) Dear Helen,

It helps those who haven't met, connect in a way too :) Heena Dear Suraj,

Yes creating a family tree like this is an excellent resource, especially when family members are scattered all over the place.

It helps those who haven’t met, connect in a way too :)
