Abstract

Describes Internet directories that provide people look-up, either by last name, email domain, or address. Covers USA and some overseas directories. The directories try to respect individual privacy and prevent unsolicited telemarketing. They are free, but carry advertising. Some sites offer added look up directories and free e-mail. Lists sites current as July 1997, giving meta sites, e.g. http://www.555-1212.com; mega-sized directories, e.g. http://www.database.america.com; international people directories; e.g. http://www.whitepages.com.au; and specialized look-up files; e.g. http://www.ancestry.com
