(Newswire.net — October 10, 2016) — New social media site Bragshare has partnered up with RelativeFinder, which enables users to find their famous ancestors and to learn how closely related they are to not only historical figures but also friends, neighbors, and spouses.

Ever wonder about a long-lost cousin out there? Bragshare has recently partnered up with RelativeFinder, which allows users to type in their names and find out which famous people they are are related to, and can all be done in under 3 minutes’ time. Once found, these relatives and their stories can be shared on the dynamic timeline or public Bragboard.

As social media grows and develops, people around the world are realizing the need to create a dynamic and findable record of the events in their life that really matter. Bragshare, a new social media platform which aims to make social sharing more meaningful, and discoverable, has created a way to keep the important things in important places.

We all know of people who were deemed ordinary and yet have a unique history or a unique life story. Bragshare was built to bring all these stories to the world, to celebrate the unique life stories and achievements of people of all ages, even including companies, past and present. It was designed to make social sharing more meaningful and to organize achievements all in one place.

Everyone is someone and they all have a story to tell, no matter when they lived. These stories should not just stay locked away in boxes, or lost across the internet or on a hard drive, never shared or seen by anyone.

RelativeFinder.org, a free to use website, allows users to see how they’re related to friends, coworkers, prophets, historical figures, and more. As a Technology Lab at BYU, it uses all of FamilySearch.org’s family history data to show users what famous people they are related to. Once these distant relatives or famous ancestors are found, their stories and history can be shared/bragged about on Bragshare, whether they are shared to the world, friends, or on a user’s own Bragline timeline.

BragShare co-founders Chad Gundry and Daniel Coburn set out with a goal to make social media more meaningful, and to provide users with a new, easy-to-use customizable medium for creating and sharing thoughts, messages, memories, achievements, aspirations, and stories. Users can assemble, tag and share past, present and future milestones that define their life. All the information is then organized into one, easy-to-use timeline.

With the Bragboard, users can share the achievements and stories of anyone who ever lived with the public, while the Braglines provides a place to build their own timeline, filled with stories from their own life. Bragshare is a place for users to describe their past, present, and future, to share the most important events: their birth, high school graduation, summiting a tall mountain, a trip to Hawaii or anything users consider most important.

Integrated with several social sites including Facebook, LinkedIn, Pinterest, Twitter and Google+, Bragshare allow users to share their posts or to import information from their profiles on those sites.
