Live Roots

http://www.liveroots.com/

Live Roots, launched in October 2008, is an information resource that assists you with locating genealogical resources, including those that are accessible online and others which may require assistance from another researcher. Genealogists use Live Roots to find vital records and original publications, share opinions about online repositories and learn more about tools available to simplify their research projects.

So, is Live Roots a search engine? Is it a specialized link directory? Yes, and No. While this site may have incorporated functionality of a mainstream search engine and/or specialized link directory, the concept behind Live Roots was to transcend some of the inherit limitations of these existing resources. First, by emphasizing original sources, researchers will be able to more clearly see where duplication exists among sites (especially sites that charge fees for access). Second, by focusing on the accessibility of the resources (i.e. online versus offline, free versus paid), researchers will be able to work more efficiently. And lastly, by bridging the gap between online researchers and offline resources, Live Roots will make more information accessible than ever before.

Navigate Geographically

http://www.liveroots.com/earth/

Live Roots also includes a feature that allows you to navigate around the globe and see what genealogy resources are available at either the country, state, county and/or city/town level. All resources are geocoded as they are added, and automatically appear on the navigate feature pages. This new feature may be limited in some areas, however, by the quality of information provided to Live Roots.
