new beta on ancestry dna results

[hurworth]

I've not switched to Beta yet (I'm waiting until it all calms down - I like having pages and being able to select matches by date which makes it easy to pick out the most recent, but I am missing being able to see which of the kits I have access to the matches match) but Thrulines has come up with a couple of promising matches in the past week. 

I'm waiting to hear back from the matches, and to be to sure I'd like to compare at a site with a chromosome browser.  If this Thruline stacks up then the mutual ancestors are the parents of my gtgtgtgt-grandmother who was born in Fife in the 1780s which is very exciting.

Just to mention that you can still get the matches in a form of date order by selecting 'New Matches' using the drop down in 'All Matches'

The lack of page breaks was annoying at first but the newer options out way this - e.g being able to group matches with colour coding.

Do you PROMISE it is worth it Gadget??  No pressure....

hurworth, Why not give it a try? You can change back easily enough.

Things have settled down a lot since this thread started.

Thrulines I can do without, but New and Improved Matches is very good.

Don't forget, Beta version is to iron out problems. You won't be able to voice your opinion to ancestry soon, I would think the beta version will be brought on for everybody shortly.

Promise/cross my heart and all that. As Margaret says, you can change back and to between both versions.
