Get to the old site by clicking the Sign in button on the left. The direct url for the old site is http://www.classic.myfamily.com. However, Ancestry.com has changes in the works and we can expect to pay for myfamily.com in the near future. In addition, we may have to move over to the new site. Adding this to the issues of free access to ancestry.com trees, with photos, stories, etc and the problems with security management and copyright ownership, these events encourage me to accelerate the development of the Google web site.
This blog is one tool of many available to me through the leeteleet account. Another is the web site: http://sites.google.com/site/leeteleetgenealogyna/.) A third is the Documents repository, where I can store all documents and link to them from the genealogy web site. Plus, there's lots of disk space and it is free.
One of the most important advantages of moving to Google is that I have better control over user security or, to put it another way, for most everything, I there is no security. This blog requires no userid or password to remember; neither does the web site. (Now, I do have secure areas within the google account to put identity sensitive materials, such as up-to-date trees. We can correspond via email through the leeteleetlink user id. We can also use the groups function, which provides the same functionality as the existing myfamily.com site. Let's see how this works.
