I was so excited when 23andMe dropped their prices to $99 a few years ago and immediately gave myself a 'Christmas Present' and bought a 23andMe kit.
I seriously thought this was the future. I was so excited to see my health information.
It was really cool to see that my spit could confirm that I'm 1/2 asian and 1/2 european. Also, I found it interesting that I have more neanderthal DNA than 99% of people who took the 23andMe test.
Other than that, all the things I've seen are marginally useful at best.
I log into my account once a year or so when I get an email from 23andMe. I understand these things take a lot of time, but I think a lot of the initial users aren't so ready to tell everyone that they need to sign up for a testing kit. I think people were so much more interested in it years ago.
