[Discuss] Freebase -- new data modeling and query system.

[Joan McIlmoyl Cleghorn]

Hi Stranger - long time since I've seen your name.

I need to read some more on this intriguing concept but sense some
great potential in the genealogy world.

Thanks for bringing it to our attention.

Hey All.

It's been a long time.  Hope you all are well.  I'm still down in
Barbados -- there's something about being warm all the time...

Are any of you aware of Freebase, Danny Hillis' latest brilliant idea?
 Please check out:

...for some information.

If anyone here is interested in giving it a try, please let me know
what you would do with access (as in, what data would you model and
contribute).  I've been given a very few invites which I'm willing to
share with people who would actually use the system.

Let me know.

Take care.

-Chris
