I just went back to the website and I'm getting that error now as well, though it was working fine before. Looks like they're having a problem with their web server, so I would try again in a few hours -- or worst case, tomorrow. Figures the site would break right after I mention it!

Thanks, Elise.

I'll try again tomorrow.

Voting for the 10th Annual Webby Awards is underway and the Genographic Project is a nominee! Just being in the list of nominees should bring new people to the project who otherwise wouldn't have looked for it, but won't it be great if the project also wins

The Webby Awards are awarded in 65 categories and each category actually gets two awards: the Webby Award and the People's Voice Award. The International Academy of Digital Arts and Sciences votes for the Webby Award, but the public votes for the People's Voice Award.

The Genographic Project is in the lead in its category for the People's Voice Award right now, but the 2nd and 3rd place sites are close behind.

To vote, register at the Webby Awards website using this link:

http://peoplesvoice.webbyawards.com/register.mhtml

After you register and sign in, you'll see the 65 categories. The Genographic Project is in the Science category under the Society section (bottom of the Ballot Menu page).

Cast your vote by May 5th. Winners will be announced on May 9th and honored on June 12th in NYC.

Every time I try to go to the People's Voice section of the web site to vote, I get "Internal Server Error" and cannot get in.

Anyone else having that problem?

I would like to vote for the Genographic Project.
