Hot Matches, fair enough... but Updates just give me 37 PAGES of names, many of which I don't even recognise, because they are of people I presumably spoke to years ago. Many of them are people who on contacting me turned out to be no kin at all of mine. The vast majority of them have made updates about ancestors who are absolutely nothing to do with my OWN families.... there is simply no point in trawling through all these people, just on the off-chance that one or two additions may be relevant to my own enquiries. Is it just me, or is this a waste of space?
