“Let's move our databases to the cloud.â€
For years, tens of thousands of genealogists have kept their databases on personal computers. Each database has been an island; these local databases don't communicate with any other databases. In this island mode, I may have data in my computer that partially overlaps data in your computer. Perhaps you have data that I need or vice versa. Yet most of today's genealogy programs do not allow us to easily share our research efforts. Several people duplicating the exact same records is a waste of resources, time, and money. Why not work together in a collaborative environment?
Indeed, the old-fashioned methods that most of us have been using are now going the way of buggy whips.
