It appears to me that this outfit uses rather shady tactics to get the email addresses from one's address book!Ben Walkerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15240332165456602721noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-26204193.post-29308791486044191492009-03-19T14:22:00.000-07:002009-03-19T14:22:00.000-07:00Hi Randy, just a quick comment.Ancestry.com did NO...Hi Randy, just a quick comment.<BR/><BR/>Ancestry.com did NOT give mylife.com any of our subscriber information to seed their databases.<BR/><BR/>And when you click over there from a link on ancestry.com, you have to give them your information....we do not send them any emails or login information.<BR/><BR/>Just wanted to make sure you knew. :-)<BR/><BR/>Keep posting, I always read!<BR/><BR/>Anne Mitchell <BR/>Search Product Manager, Ancestry.comAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-26204193.post-40621734472828951402009-03-19T08:43:00.000-07:002009-03-19T08:43:00.000-07:00Hi Randy, thanks for writing this informative post...Hi Randy, thanks for writing this informative post. I was likewise wondering what this new "database" would be all about. <BR/>And speaking of social networking sites, would you mind if I posted a link to your blog on my facebook page, so my "friends" can be informed as well? <BR/>Thanks!GingerGinger Smithhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17453442334718861407noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-26204193.post-91545380257560123132009-03-19T08:00:00.000-07:002009-03-19T08:00:00.000-07:00My guess is that MyLife would just search the publ...My guess is that MyLife would just search the public profiles of Facebook, Myspace, etc. Everyone has a public profile on these sites that have their photo, name and usually a few of their friends listed. The actual info we post and such to those profiles wouldn't be accessible except from within the sites themselves and would be bound by the privacy settings therein. Just a guess, though.Jenniferhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03251821175075255774noreply@blogger.com
