They've already begun making some changes to their community area. The next big step for them will be allowing people to make other members their "friends" or "cousins" so that we can more easily re-visit trees that are linked to ours. Ancestry will make it easier to learn more about members and search for people who have common research interests or who are located in areas where you need research help. Users will be able to add things on their profile like, "I volunteer with RAOGK" or "I will visit cemeteries in the Houston area". If Ancestry.com does this, it will be an incredibly useful site, more powerful than Geni or other genealogical social networks.
