I just received an announcement about vSafe, a new service that Wells Fargo Bank is offering its customers for storing copies of vital records and documents. They are offering 1GB of storage space for $4.95/month.
vSafe is described as “secure online storage for you to safeguard, organize, and access electronic copies of important documents—from birth certificates and immunization records to wills and treasured photos.”
Here is a link with more information.
We at Famundo think this is a GREAT idea.
In fact, we offer a virtually identical product, the Family Vault, as part of Famundo Social suite of applications. AND for a limited time, you can create unlimited Family Vaults, as well as take advantage of all the other offerings of Famundo Social, for only $4.95/month or $49/year with 2GB of storage, or create one vault with our free version.
Sign up and start protecting your vital records and documents today!

You can now view your Famundo site in compatibility mode.

When we set out to design Famundo Social, we surveyed our users for ideas on what would make Famundo work better for them. Many of their suggestions are incorporated in this new release.
One of the things we heard over and over again was the need for families to be able to interact with their extended family and friends in a manner, similar to Facebook or Myspace, but in a family-friendly, safe and secure environment. With parents having control over who their children can or cannot be friends with. With grandkids and grandparents having the ability to communicate with each other without having to set up an e-mail account.
The result is the “Social” part of Famundo Social. Here is a short flash movie that gives a overview on how this works.
Families are busy today. We tend to get caught up in our own lives and let our relationships with friends and our extended families fall through the cracks. We hope Famundo Social can help bring you together again.

Famundo is featured in the print edition of SmartComputing magazine!
Famundo, a social networking site for families, allows parents to set up a family account for theirselves and their children, and then the parents can control who their online friends are. Parents can opt to be friends with the families of schoolchildren’s classmates, grandparents, and other extended family.
It is on the newsstands now! Check it out, page 47! (not available on the online version yet.)

New Years is the time of year when we make a list of promises or “resolutions” to improve our lives in the upcoming year. Getting organized always seems to be near the top of everyone’s list (just underneath losing weight) but by mid-January, these resolutions are often long forgotten.
But this year when you put Get Organized on your list, you’ve got some help, Famundo.
Famundo is made to help you organize your life. It’s got an online calendar for everyone in the family, a place to make list of things you need to buy and do, and an address book where you can keep track of your family and friends. You can send your self reminders so you never forget important events and, you can keep your important files and document in a super safe vault.
And our latest version, Famundo Social, has safe and secure social networking for families and friends.
So this year, put Sign up for Famundo on the top of your list. The rest will be easy.

We are counting down the hours until we release the next generation of Famundo.
We are calling this new version Famundo Social, because we have added new family social networking features that will allow you to connect, communicate and share with your friends and family in a safe and secure environment. This is in addition to our existing scheduling and organization features, which are now faster and easier to use.
Stay tuned!!!
