When rushing home from work to make your tea is a thing of the past as you no longer have hunger pangs for food but for your next find on genealogy i.e. rushing home to put your computer on instead of the cooker  ;D  ???  ::)  :P

...you live in the Southern Hemisphere, and turn your ipad on first thing in the morning, while you are eating breakfast so you can see what's been happening overnight on Rootschat while you've been sleeping!   Very exciting!

You type common surnames into Ancestry to see how many people with that surname are in each census and how many births have been registered with that name or mothers maiden name.

Over 300'000 people with the surname or mmn White were registered inbetween 1916 and 2007. Imagine trying to do a one name study on all that lot lol.
