Cyndi's List Working on fixing the now broken GeoCities links. As I go I also find AOL, MSN, CompuServ, and Earthlink links are all broken as well. Wow, this is fun!

John GIl Cindi hello, we are forming a global database for archival biographies. Wondering if you may have an interest to consult? Think, Wikipedia combines with Facebook and People magazine for the unfamous. It's about people, all people, and can include genealogical links.

Sincerely, John Gil

Shelly Takehara Cyndi, with the holiday season coming up, I do a lot of online shopping. Do you get credit for purchases made through your Amazon and other links (eBay, Barnes & Noble etc.) even though they are not genealogy related purchases? Let me know and I will shop through your links!

Hmmm....yesterday I said no links to MySpace and possibly other social networking pages. Today I get a new link to a FB page that changes my mind about Facebook pages. I think if you have a FB page devoted to a single topic (surname, locality, etc.) then it probably makes sense. What do you think? This is the new link ...- seems well done to me: http://www.facebook.com/pages/Johannes-Siegfried-of-Maxatawny-Pa-1690-1747/200656220983?ref=tsRead More

That site is very well thought out. But it is your call.

With a site as well thought out and specific as this one--what would actually be the difference between this page and other websites--other than the URL beginning with www.facebook....?
Therefore, I think it would have to be judged on a case-by-case basis.

Cyndi's List

Cyndi's List When I'm placing a link for prisoners or criminals I'm seriously tempted to put it under "Occupations." For example, just placed one on the Arkansas page. I've always put them under "People." Then I stop myself and realize my weird sense of humor might not fly in this situation.

Cindi, you are a person after my own heart. I too can have a weird sense of humor. And remember that there are those who have been labeled as career criminals!

Soooo funny! I had an Australian, new found Cousin who found me on Ancestry. He assured me, they were not CRIMINAL'S! God Bless him gave me the name of the ship they arrived on!

Cyndi's List That's it. I've officially decided I will not link to any personal genealogy pages located on MySpace, and most likely not any other personal networking sites. They don't function well as publications.
