A peak inside MyHeritage's offices

My Heritage (www.myheritage.com) has released a blog post providing an interesting behind the scenes glimpse of the company's operation at its offices in Or Yehuda, Israel, where it employs some 260 people. The blog post is essentially a photograph collection with some commentary, but does give a sense of scale to the company, which also has offices Tel Aviv, and in the US.

The company also has a new page on its website detailing its management team at https://www.myheritage.com/management.

My Heritage and RootsMagic partnership over search technologies

Having only just announced on Monday that Calico Pie's Family Historian software package is to adopt My Heritage's search technologies (see http://britishgenes.blogspot.co.uk/2014/11/familyhistorian-to-integrate-my.html), it seems that My Heritage has also now partnered with Roots Magic to do the same thing.
