Website Review: Turtle Trove Ancestry

Website: Turtle Trove Ancestry
URL: http://www.turtletroveancestry.com

In business since: 2012

This is a nice site. I particularly like the fact that their logo, the turtle, has a shell in the shape of a heart.

They are ancestry researchers, who specialize in preparing the family tree book. Basically the book just puts together all of your family history, including photographs and other interesting objects, and prints several nice copies to give out to relatives.

Their nav bar consists of Home, About Us, Services, Links, Upcoming events, Blog and contact pages.

The links page has links to heritage societies, like the Daughters of the American Revolution, Sons and Daughters of the Oregon Trail, and so on.

Back in business...

I have to apologize to all my loyal readers who have been waiting around, wondering where my blog reports were!

Well, I'm back in business and will be reviewing at least one blog a week from now on - hopefully more than that.

So please stay tuned.

Baseball Blogs: Bleed Cubbie Blue

REVIEWED BY: Ms. Cairo

MY RECOMMENDATION: Yes, wth reservations

AMAZON SUBSCRIPTION LINK: Bleed Cubbie Blue

WEB ADDRESS: http://www.bleedcubbieblue.com/

BLOG DESCRIPTION: This blog is dedicated to the Chicago Cubs fan community and features game recaps, bleacher reconstruction news, and book reviews. All sides of being a Cubs fan are covered in this informative site.

MY REVIEW: There is such a wealth of information fed by this blog to your Kindle, that at a cost of 99 cents a month to have it delivered, it's not a bad deal, especially if you're a diehard Chicago Cubs fan.

Unfortunately, like most of the SportsBlog Nation blogs, many of the features available on the website aren't available on the Kindle. There's videos, audio, and probably even game threads that you won't see unless you actually visit this blog web's page.

However, I frankly anticipate that once the season actually begins and the posts really start coming, they'll mostly be text-based, and Kindle users will be able to enjoy having the articles delivered directly to their Kindle.
