I'm just going to put this one out in the open forum because I want to see what others experiences are.
In doing my research, I've come across quite a few profiles and sites across a variety of sites and services. Most if not all of them are dead in the water, meaning as far as i can tell, they haven't been updated in years.
I seem to have bad luck with doing my research in trying to find an actual live person (or website) to talk to.
Maybe it's my particular area, I guess, as opposed to something like the American Civil war which no doubt is an active topic.
Anyone have any tips and tricks in general about historical research?
