Dick Eastman (Eastman’s Online Genealogy Newsletter) gives you a great overview of this new website in his post, The Family History Guide is Now Available Online.
The Family History Guide is a huge website aimed for beginners and advanced genealogy researchers alike. It is not a simple ebook published in PDF or some other format. Instead, it is a full interactive guide that contains some of its information on the Family History Guide’s own web site and adds hundreds of links to other web sites that also contain useful information...
I will admit that once Rootstech ended, I haven’t given much thought to the Innovator Showdown, the semifinalists nor winners.
Have any of you checked them out? If you have, please share which is your favorite and why?
