WorldConnect Project: What It Is And Its History

Worldconnect History:
"The WorldConnect Project is a set of tools, which allow users to upload, modify, link, and display their family trees as a means to share their genealogy with other researchers. The program used to day has a genealogy of its own.

In the early days of 1994 and 1995, there were very few genealogical databases online and only a few genealogy related websites. A group of people joined together to discuss the possibilities and the GenWeb group was formed. Under the direction of Gary Hoffman a mailing list was begun and provided the forum by which these early programmers discussed their ideas. The archives of these messages can be found at http://demo.genweb.org/genweblist/"
