Hmmm, sounds cool but doesn't work on linux (firefox 1.5.0.7).

On a related note, this is great that the family search website is
being updated.  I've tried to use it various times over the last few
years and have found it completely unintuitive.  I got up to 10
generations done but it was like pulling nails.  (If the information
is all in there, why did it take me able 6 hours to just download and
re-link it all?  Only to find out later that my aunt has done a lot
more than I have, so in essence I wasted my time, doing a fraction of
what someone else has done.)  (I'm willing to admit that I'm probably
dense so perhaps others know how to use it better, and no I haven't
gone to any family history research center since the days when they
were all dos based).  Hopefully this will bring some Web2.0 goodness
to the site and make it easier to find, download, upload and
collaborate with others (who have already done the previous steps, but
you happen to repeat them since that seems like the only step...)

Dan, I don't mean to be too critical but seeing as how the church is
sitting on a vast database of genealogical information, giving people
an easy way to get at it would be appreciated.

All,

A week or so ago I posted an image of my pedigree in a smart pedigree viewer
we've been working on. Many people expressed an interest in playing with the
viewer using their own data and I thought this group would be interested.
We've just made a new website available (FamilySearch Labs) to showcase
interesting new technology we're working on. The first project on the site
is our smart pedigree viewer. It allows you to upload your own GEDCOM and
view it or view one of our sample files. Go check it out at
www.familysearchlabs.org and be sure to use the feedback link on the site to
tell us what you think.
