Global perspective The World Map from MacFamilyTree 4 hasbeen replaced with a "Virtual Globe", a spherical view of the Earth. On the globe you can retrace the paths of your ancestors, aided by a huge database of locations worlwide and satellite imagery. For geolocations not yet in the database, there is a quick link to Google Earth, but you can always define them manually if need be. Integrated web publishing You may publish your family tree online, either onto a web page provided by the Synium Software GmbH, a free service to all MacFamilyTree 5 customers, or via .Mac, Apple's webhosting service. Do-it-yourself If you run your own website, you may want to show the family tree somewhere on those pages: just include the HTML code somewhere on your site. Whichever way you choose, MacFamilyTree 5 supports all of them just fine. Your friends and family may access your family tree with their usual Web browser, with or without password protection. Use charts for illustration As a major improvement over previous versions, edited and saved charts can now be included in HTML pages created with MacFamilyTree. This gives research teams a far more focused way of collaboration. Editable listings for analysis and reference Just like its predecessor, MacFamilyTree 5 offers a wide variety of different ways to analyze your data. What's new is that you may now modify the reports and, as with charts, edited Reports are now stored within the family tree for your reference at any time.
