Then there's the matter of the Ancestry.com search engine. As best
I can tell, over the past 3-4 months, they have changed their online
search engine three times and now they have settled on the absolute
worst possible search.
I tried to find an uncle of mine to verify his death date in the SS
death index. With the new Ancestry.com site, I got over 50 hits on
his name, none of which was my uncle. I switched to the
FamilySearch site and found him in 30 seconds.
Guess this is what happens when you employ a shop full of computer
nerds who feel that they ABSOLUTELY MUST "improve" things.

I found the NEW so full of errors I switched back
to OLD search.
I come back to New every couple of months
and repost any errors I find

I don't believe this!!
Even the FTM blog is impossible to use. I spent 10 minutes poking
around and never did find how to leave a comment!!
Something else to rant about!!!
