Whenever I run into friends and family someone usually asks me about my “DNA thing”. They always want to know if I “know anything yet?”.
Five weeks have elapsed since I mailed my saliva tube on Feb. 7 (You can see my DNA party photos here and my spit challenge video here). 23andMe says that it usually takes between 4-6 weeks for them to process, read and upload the results to their website.
That means I should be getting my results back in the next week or so. Yay!
In the meantime, other bloggers have been providing interesting looks at their own DNA results. Here are some good ones:
1) NBC News Correspondent Peter Alexander explores his results on the Today Show (via The Genetic Genealogist).
2) My ex-boss provides an extensive look at his results and is sharing the data results with people.
3) Hsien over at Eye on DNA has a list of three people who are discussing and sharing their results (one using 23andMe and two using deCODEme).
4) Kevin Kelly is still comparing his 23andMe and deCODEme results, but he provides a great overview of the SNPedia wiki.
5) This last one is really bizarre and doesn’t have anything to do with DNA results (well, kind of) but I had to give it a shout-out.
Sperm For Tickets is trading concert tickets for sperm donations (via Eye on DNA).
Note: I’m put my skepticism aside and believed.
