Circa 1993, a printed listing of everything on the Internet:
"As easy to use as your telephone book, THE INTERNET DIRECTORY provides: user-friendly instructions on how to get on-line and get the information you want; a guide to the thousands of interconnected computer systems that comprise Internet; tips on how to send and receive messages, and much more"
Someone gave it a one star review in 2008, saying "I tried to use a bit of information from the book and it didn't work so I'm not going to bother reading it anymore."
Another shortcoming is it wasn't printed on acid-free paper for the ages.
It seems there were still similar directories being printed at least as late as 1995.
