Welcome to the Genealogy News from Geneatopia I’m Patty Roy, also known as Dinah Larkham in Second Life. Today is Wednesday December 19, 2018 and this is Episode 126. Cyndi’s List Many of you probably have heard of and use Cyndi’s List. I personally subscribe to her mailing list to find out what’s been added and changed at Cyndi’s List. The mailing list has been quiet for sometime. Cyndi recently sent out an update. She has been using the RootsWeb mailing list. As you may know RootsWeb has been offline for about a year. There was a security breach with usernames and passwords for RootsWeb being found on the Internet. Ancestry who acquired RootsWeb in 2000 took it down to improve security and make enhancements. Parts of RootsWeb have been coming back online in the last few months. The mailing list for Cyndi’s list is back. RootsWeb has a new mailing list platform and there were some technical problems that had to be figured out before a message could be sent using the mailing list. Cyndi did not have a copy of the subscribers to her mailing list. She does not keep the email addresses because she does not sell them or use them inappropriately. In the future Cyndi will be saving all the email addresses but will stick to her privacy policy to ensure the email addresses are only used to communicate about Cyndi’s List. Cyndi’s List has not had many updates during the last year. Cyndi’s mother has moved in with her so Cyndi can help her. Her mother had a stroke that was caught right away and treated. Her mother is doing well and her mother’s house is now ready to be sold. Cyndi says she is ready to get back to work and she will be processing the backlog of links and emails. She maintains the site by herself and she does have expenses related to the site. Please consider making a donation. You will find a donate button on every page. Cyndi’s List 23andMe Customers Can Print a Book 23andMe customers can print a book called The Story of Your DNA. The book will include Ancestry Composition, your Neanderthal ancestry, and the traits you share with your DNA Relatives. It will also contain what your DNA says about where you came from. There will be details about human migration and cultural touchstones from the places your DNA traces to. You can order a book for yourself right now. In the future you will be able to order books as a gift for someone you share DNA with. 23andMe is working with Blurb to create the book. Blurb is website where you can make your own books. 23andMe Helps You Write The Story of Your DNA New Website for Y-DNA and Mitochondrial DNA There’s a new website that lets you upload Y-DNA and mitochondrial DNA or mtDNA. It can be found at mitoYDNA.org. Although Family Tree DNA lets you find matches for Y-DNA and mtDNA, the new website lets anyone from other testing companies to upload DNA and the new website plans to have different comparison and searching options. The website is free but they accept donations. Current...
