| 2021-09-26 |  | | Really great extension that simplifies so many of the steps for keeping track of research. Particularly for me, as someone who is not only disorganized but also distracted by every rabbit hole I find, this helps to keep me on task and most especially know where to start each time I begin researching. A huge game-changer in the family history tech space. | |

| 2020-04-04 |  | | The chief benefit of this extension in my opinion is that it points out which ancestors are well sourced and which have never had any updating since the old Book of Remembrance pages. Let's face it. Too many of us think our family history is "done," when the tree hasn't been pruned or fertilized for years. This is a great time for this utility to be launched, since more of us are housebound and need some constructive things to do with our browsers. It can also serve as a way to create a to-do list and "research log" that might be useful to whoever inherits our computer if we pass on sooner than we planned. | |

| 2020-03-30 |  | | I was disappointed to see that this extension relies solely upon individuals added to Family Search's "one shared tree". I strongly encourage individuals to recognize that while Family Search's primary benefactor, the Church of Latter Day Saints, generously provides an outstanding array of digitized array of genealogical resources, their goal of building "one tree" offers zero privacy or control by family members who might not share their vision. I do not subscribe to the religious beliefs of the Church of Latter Day Saints, and therefore, cannot recommend a tool that is in line with their principles. | |

| 2020-03-24 |  | | Great research log tool! The extension includes guided research steps to help you in each part of the research process - from creating an objective, to planning tasks, finding locality information, and even taking screenshots. Goldie May logs each website you visit - a great start for newbie research loggers! |
