We are very happy and excited to announce the long-awaited launch of the new MyHeritage.com Website!

The new site has many new features and benefits for our users!

The first change you'll notice, is that we've replaced the home page with a new, cleaner version.

Our Immersive Family Tree has evolved to allow entering entire family trees online without downloading any software. This is done in an intuitive and easy-to-use interface that makes it fun to build a family tree! Now the whole family can collaborate on extending the tree... Any family tree journey starts with just a small step... Create a new tree, add yourself, and see how far it will go...

The entire MyHeritage.com Website is now available in fifteen languages, which include English, Hebrew, French, Spanish, German, Italian, Portuguese (Portugal), Portuguese (Brazil), Norwegian, Swedish, Chinese, Japanese, Korean, Russian and Turkish! If you are a native speaker of some of these languages you may still notice a glitch here and there -- it's a difficult undertaking to translate a site with 100,000 words to fifteen languages, so if you spot problems or would like to volunteer to help us improve the translations, please add a comment below and we will contact you.

More fun coming up... We've added an original Look-alike Meter feature - it uses our face recognition technology to check if a baby looks more like mom or dad... Use this cool animated widget to settle every family's debate once and for all! After creating a Look-alike Meter you can save the results on MyHeritage or on any social network and you can evolve the Meter into an online family tree on MyHeritage. If you're too young to have your own child, don't worry, you can use the Look-alike Meter to see which of your parents you resemble more!

There's much more new stuff, and we'll cover it in additional entries on this blog.

Enjoy!
