I have collected my website history and updates here.
After some years with paper records of my genealogy, it started to get very hard-to-grasp the different relations and connections between people. So I started with genealogy on my MAC. My first software was GENE written by David and Diana Eppstein. Then after a while I wanted a more advanced program and ended up with REUNION by Leister Productions. Then after some years I wanted to publish my research on the Internet and I published it first on my Internet providers web space, but the amount of space they give to users, soon was to small and I ended up with my own domain - www.borgvinn.net.
