Wow, I never realised there used to be a physical book. Was this basically the WHOIS data in print form? Just DNS or IP ranges too?

- dantheman 17y agoThe internet yellow pages was much like the current yellow pages, you navigate to a category and then it lists all the domains and a small description that are in that category. Some larger sites would receive a half a page or more describing them.
- eli 17y agoYup, there were a couple of these print books back in the day. How else were you supposed to find sites when there was no decent search, no decent directory, and lots of stuff simply wasn't on the web (yet).
