That was so much better than 90% of the other RU-vid genetic genealogy films. I just can't stand the ones who just want you to see their face for an hour, and shriek and pull faces. Thank you.
Unless you are already an experienced DNA genealogist, don't waste your time on this presentation. This is a man who undoubtedly knows a lot, but instead of explaining how these tools can help you, he seems content to show off how many people he knows, how many acronyms he knows and how to click on links that show you pictures - without explaining the meaning (value, insight, etc.) of the output. He is so focused on clicking links within the time provided - that he doesn't bother to explain even half of his statements, and offers tons of hand waving. I couldn't bear to watch the whole thing - I was so frustrated, and I've done genealogy for 35 years. The sponsors would be better served by taking just a few of the most useful tools (at a time) and spending the time with some guided process for using them, rather than this race to the end to see how many tools they could initiate without relating them to your genealogy. If I hear one more "this is useful" - without any attempt to say WHY or HOW a certain tool or output is useful...I could just scream. This is a classic case of the echo chamber among the knowledgeable, rather than a helpful exhibit of ways to use DNA in your exploration of your family tree.
They all stink. I have specific questions that no video can answer. There is no type of customer support, even if you pay $10 a month. Why isn’t that site more user friendly??? What in God’s name is a SNIP??????
LOL when they suggest starting with a 10 generation uploaded tree you understand this entire scheme doesn't work out too well for African Americans compared to others
