"This announcement shouldn’t surprise anyone.
I see this as a positive step. Cloud-based applications open up possibilities of collaboration with other genealogists as well providing safer and more reliable databases that don’t disappear with a hard drive crash. Of course, changes always make many people uncomfortable. Of course, the entire computer industry is moving away from software and databases installed in desktop and laptop computers.
Every genealogist should evaluate today’s offerings and also try to look into a crystal ball to see what lies in the future as industry trends keep shifting.
As for me, I am moving to the cloud. "
*Dick Eastman has been involved in genealogy for more than 30 years. He has worked in the computer industry for more than 40 years in hardware, software, and managerial positions. By the early 1970s, Dick was already using a mainframe computer to enter his family data on punch cards. He built his first home computer in 1980.
PS: Selv Bill Gates mente at Internett var ett blaff rundt 1995.

"The Future: Genealogy Un-tethered
Personally, I think the Ancestry.com move is a smart one.
The demise of Family Tree Maker is just the start of the trend in the genealogy market. "
