British GENES to be archived by British Library

I'm delighted to announce that the British GENES blog, and it's predecessor Scottish GENES, are both to be archived by the British Library as part of the UK Web Archive (www.webarchive.org.uk/ukwa/ ). The content will not be available there immediately - there's a bit of a queue! - but when it does it will carry a regular archive and perspective on UK genealogical news since late 2006 when I first started to get to grips with Blogger! So if I keel over tomorrow and if Google goes out of business ( yeah right!), all the effort will still be accessible via the British Library, to whom thanks is given.
