Family Tree DNA out of Houston, Texas has announced the launch of the Family Finder DNA test. It uses several hundred thousand genetic markers to determine ancestry and family relations up to five generations back in time. Results can be compared between two individuals, but are also compared against a database of people who previously took the test. If any profile matches, email addresses are exchanged. Additionally you can download the raw test data to do your own analysis.
