It helped explain a few terms that were used in the Webinar.\n\nI have been looking at Instant Discoveries but didn't want to click on them because it looked like an "all or nothing" thing. Today's webinar showed how much information I will see before I decide to add to my tree. And there were other things he showed too!\n\nI have learned so much attending these webinars.

I'm new to MyHeritage and haven't really worked with it at all.\n\nLearned a lot.\n\nLearned quite a few new techniques as a MyHeritage user. And I'll review the webinar, as a member, to revisit the points I need a refresher on.\n\nlearned things about MyHeritage that I did not know
