I'm sorry that there was some confusion about the announcement and I'd like to set the record straight.<br /><br />Here's what we did – we took a number of features that used to require a paid subscription (merging profiles, adding unlimited profiles, extended relationship paths, family tree charts, hiding ads) and made them free for all users. We think this is a pretty significant step that has great benefits for all of our users, including our paid subscribers, and for the World Family Tree.<br /><br />Geni remains a "freemium" service, which means that the basic version of Geni is free and members can choose to upgrade to a paid subscription if they find value in the additional features. There is just more "free" in the "freemium" now :-). <br /><br />Everyone here at Geni is really excited and the response so far from our user community has been fantastic. Thanks again for the post and please don't hesitate to contact me if you have any questions.<br /><br />Regards,<br />Noah Tutak<br />CEO, GeniNoah Tutakhttp://www.geni.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-26204193.post-12985918674759181382012-11-28T14:45:03.268-08:002012-11-28T14:45:03.268-08:00Yeah I'm not sure what's free - I am curre...Yeah I'm not sure what's free - I am currently still prompted to enter credit card details when I want to view the Profile submitted and the details of the submitter for someone who has taken photos from MY website and put them up on Geni.com.theKiwihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08032776673542923740noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-26204193.post-54412782443440725582012-11-28T12:16:44.904-08:002012-11-28T12:16:44.904-08:00I think it's a bit of hyperbole to state that ...I think it's a bit of hyperbole to state that "Geni.com is now Free!".
