The coolest thing you wish never had to be invented...

Yad Vashem to launch on-line list of Holocaust victims

After a decade of planning, Yad Vashem on Monday will inaugurate an Internet database listing the names of three million Jewish victims of the Holocaust.

The on-line "Central Database for Shoah Victims' Names" – which will be accessible free of charge via a link on Yad Vashem's Web site, www.yadvashem.org – will be the largest database of Holocaust victims in the world, the chairman of Yad Vashem's directorate, Avner Shalev, said.


I wonder if I can find any family members - I don't know how many great aunts and uncles of mine died in the Holocuast.
