Last year, after Rootstech 2016, I briefly mentioned Twile in a list of Finalists for the Innovator Showdown awards.
Recently, Twile, was back on my radar as it has a new fun feature! First, a quick refresher … this FREE and private timeline creation tool is self-described as:
Twile makes
your family history more visual and engaging. Pull together all of your
family's memories, photos and stories in the same place.
Import your
family history to automatically create a visual timeline and then share it
privately with the rest of your family.
With over
60% of family historians concerned that their findings will be lost or
forgotten and 74% doubtful if anyone will continue their family history
research*, Twile have come up a quick and interesting way of getting
non-genealogists interested in their ancestry.
It does seem to create a fun, simple to share snapshot of one’s documented family.
Tell us if you shared a Twile created Family Infographic with your family, whether genealogically-minded or not, and their reaction!
