Topic: Possible Repository?

For survey purposes, my boss is asking me to look for some sort of repository for "recently created websites". I am aware that such repositories do exist, which is basically a start-up site for new webmasters. Any Idea where I may find this "repository"?

Repository? I hope that isn't anything like a suppository...

No serious. What is a repository?

What exactly is it you're supposed to be looking for? A place to go to find new sites?

I've not heard of what you're looking for in practice. I've heard ideas for making one, but not any created.

Sol: Yes, that's what I'm looking for.

A research project requires me to research new websites and the owners who create them. I was told that there is a bbs-type of repository in which people simply enter their name and new site on a form, along with when their site is created and a one-liner on what it is about.

I'm guessing that the repository itself is not graphically attractive. It's probably more of a text based format.
