This is without a doubt, the quietest past week in the 20+ Sundays in a row that I've covered #genealogysoftware news briefs. Clooz had a major update, but will cover that elsewhere. Just a handful of #genealogy browser extension and mobile app updates.

Very positive response from the GCG (Genealogical Computing Group) at the NZSG's Family Research Centre. Plenty of interest in the possibilities of a tool that can take family history data and make it into a compelling story that family members love to read, watch and share. #genealogy

If you use (or develop) #Chrome, #Firefox, #Safari, or #MicrosoftEdge browser extensions for your #genealogy research, and you've noticed messages in the browser extension stores about the extension needs to be updated or it will be delisted, well it's happening

For those using Louis Kessler's Behold #genealogysoftware (Windows) or who are interested in his revamp for Behold 2.0, he updated his development blog, and Behold 1.99.1 is closer (which means Behold 2.0 is closer).
