The Next Generation of Genealogy Sitebuilding is a genealogy program that runs on a web server. Indeed, TNG functions in much the same manner as any other genealogy program: it has most all the features one expects in any modern genealogy program, including a powerful database, easy methods of adding new data, relationship charts, timelines, and more. The major difference is that TNG is installed on a Windows, UNIX, Apple or Linux web server. It also is multi-user: multiple people can access the database and even add new data simultaneously.
I wrote a review of TNG in this newsletter several years ago. That review is still available at http://blog.eogn.com/eastmans_online_genealogy/2004/06/the_next_genera.html. You can also listen to an audio interview of TNG software developer Darrin Lythgoe at http://blog.eogn.com/eastmans_online_genealogy/2006/11/tng_with_darrin.html. Now Darrin has updated the program significantly.
Now author Darrin Lythgoe has made more than 100 changes to the program. Something of them are minor "tweaks" although others are rather significant. A full list of changes may be found at http://lythgoes.net/genealogy/recentchanges.php.
Users of version 5 or version 6 may upgrade for $12.99. The standard price of the Next Generation of Genealogy Sitebuilding is $29.99. More information may be found at http://lythgoes.net/genealogy/software.php.
