Ancestry.com announced some pretty cool things yesterday:
o A new and improved Ancestry.com website will make it easier for anyone to discover and tell the rich, unique story of their family, through new features and site enhancements that will reinvent the ways Ancestry members create and showcase their family story. The new site experience is currently in limited Beta and will be demonstrated at RootsTech On Friday, Feb. 13 at 1:00 pm MT (Room 151) as well as at the Ancestry booth. Visitors to the Ancestry booth will be able to opt in to participate in the Beta.
o
Ancestry mobile will introduce a
full search feature in the iOS app that will empower users to
access 15 billion historical records and hints anytime, anywhere in the
native app environment. The intuitive interface will make both simple
and advanced searches easier, while the presentation
of search results will also help you quickly identify and prioritize
the most important results, making search less complicated. The
Ancestry mobile team will showcase version 1 search in the Ancestry
booth and discuss search and other mobile features in
length during an FGS class, “Ancestry’s Mobile World,” on Saturday, Feb. 14 at 1:00 pm MT.
o Ancestry.com will also remain committed to providing the best in educational resources with the launch of Ancestry Academy in April.
