Lines: 34 Keywords: netsites, Database Xref: watmath news.admin:128 news.software.b:229 news.sysadmin:29 I'm still young on the net (2 months 2 years ago plus 1 week now). With the questions that I have seen along the lines of "is foo on the net" and with the questions that I will be getting from my net virgins users here, I have a question my self to ask. Is there a database program/file which lists all of the netsites by country, region, alphabetical? If there is how often is it published? If a program/file does not exist yet, is there someone in netland that will develope it so that when I get ask by my users "is company 'johnDoe' on" the net I can access/look_in in order to find out if the company is on the net along with the rest of the newsite announcement information. I'm sorry if I'm asking a dumb question which get asked all of the time. In none of the introduction documentation is this question answered that I saw. I feel that if I as a news administrator if I had a netsite database/file which I could look at to answer my questions I would be much happer. I hope that this might be a new idea to the net. I'm looking forward to any and all answers. Please no major flames.
