What is Family
Connexions?
Family Connexions is a
web script designed to act as a central point of contact for your family
members. Uploading the script to your webspace will give your family
a dedicated contact site.
Is it a family tree?
Not quite. A family tree records your
families history and shows you the relationship between your family members.
Whilst Family Connexions will function similarly to a family tree, it is for living
family members and will allow each member of the family to display their
contact details. Other family members can have instant access to those
details and can contact other members directly.
What can my
members expect from my Family Connexions web site?
A central repository for all your families contact info, a profile for each family member,
private messaging between members, family forums, view members as a tree or group
complete with photos,
members individual photo gallery, members file storage and sharing, reminders for birthdays
and anniversaries etc, a family event calendar, family anecdotes, private or public member diaries,
family story, family chat room, family announcements, members
diary and appointment scheduler, family statistics and much, much more... |

Family Connexions - About
|

Hi and welcome to the Family Connexions official web site. My
name is Magus Perde and I am the author of Family Connexions. I wrote Family
Connexions because of a personal need. With my own family members spread
across both the country and the world, keeping in contact with them and sharing all the latest
news was difficult. I decided that,
in these days of hi-tech solutions, there must be an easy way of doing it
and a web site would be the ideal answer. To my surprise I could find very
little that would do this and most of the handful of scripts that were
available were poorly written or had very few of the features I wanted to
see and use. As a web designer and coder I decided the only option was
to write my own and include the features I felt a script like this
required and deserved. After coding
for three months, I finally had exactly what I wanted and more. As people
saw and used the site, I was surprised at how much they enjoyed it and my
own site is like a train station at rush hour! Eventually, it was suggested that I should make it available for
others and Family Connexions is the result. I now have an ongoing
commitment to continue developing the script. Already the most comprehensive
and complete family contact script available, I want Family Connexions to
stay that way. If you haven't yet tried the demo please do... I know you'll
be impressed! Regards,
Magus Perde |
