Yes I've experienced a few breaks in the service today - but the new decor looks great! :)

I didn't notice, as I usually go right to the search page, but the home page is looking very classy!

It's all changed how you submit info etc & there will be so much more info available on it too.One of the reasons they ditched their Ancestry at FHC was because most of the info now on Ancestry will be there on Family Search-when I don't know.
One of my friends is a family history consultant & is trialing all the new stuff.
Some she says is great & some iffy.
