For a long time I complained about the fact there were no Italian genealogy records online despite the fact Italians immigrated to the US in such massive numbers in the 20th century. Every so often I like to check out to see how the situation has improved. While I find progress, there's still a long way to go.
There's been steady improvment at Ancestry.com, and while they do have some Southern Italian records, those they have still center on the North of the country. By the way, I'm interested in Southern Italian records because the vast majority of Italian immigrants came from the poor provinces in the South and because both of my paternal grandparents came from Cosenza Province in Calabria.
Family Search has two browse only provinces, but both are in Southern Italy.
This site provides transcriptions of selected Italian communes, but hasn't been updated in quite some time. I have to add the transcriptions on this site come from individuals who do it for the purpose of their own research or just out of the goodness of their hearts.
To my knowledge, Archivio Di Stato Di Cosenza is still the only province in Italy with its records online. Included are civil and some military records and includes many scanned original documents. I'm not sure if all of their records are now online or if it's still a work in progress, but the site is very useful for me because both of my grandparents came from this province.
There are many websites about Italian genealogy records, but very few actual online records.
