Ancestry.com is celebrating 15 years. Hard to believe in today’s ever changing World Wide Web any single site could celebrate 15 years of service. The Web itself is not much older. Congratulations to Ancestry.
In celebration of this milestone, Ancestry is offering free access to one of their favorite collections each day. Through October 15, 2011, free access will be given each day to a different collection. You can also enter the 15 Days of Discovery Sweepstakes, a drawing with 15 daily prizes and a Grand Prize trip to California with a behind the scenes tour of NBC’s Who Do You Think You Are, with Executive Producer Lisa Kudrow.
Join Ancestry.com in their birthday celebration and gain access to 15 collections over 15 days. You can also sign up for a 14 free trial membership and gain access to their entire site.
Hmm, if I follow the link above to Ancestry, the sweepstakes and free collections come up on the right hand side of the web page. However, if I log in as I usually do, as a paying member, there is NO access shown to either the sweeps or the free collections. The sweeps rules say “by entering, you become a registered member of Ancestry.com”. I think they’re playing fast and loose with the public again.
