About Chronicle
Chronicle is a free web directory operating in the tradition of the printed gazetteer — a systematic, human-curated record of notable web presences, organised for easy reference. Founded as a public index of the modern web, Chronicle currently records 826 approved websites across twenty-two clearly defined categories.
The Chronicle's editorial approach sets it apart from automated search: every entry in the directory has been individually submitted and reviewed before admission. This process ensures that the Chronicle remains a reliable starting point for browsers researching any of the fields covered by its twenty-two headings — from legal and medical services to travel and the press.
Membership in the Chronicle is entirely free. Website owners in any qualifying field are invited to submit their web presence for inclusion. Once approved, a listing in the Chronicle places your website alongside an established collection of reviewed web presences, visible to all directory browsers. There are no fees, no subscriptions, and no recurring charges — listing in the Chronicle is complimentary, as it has always been.
The Chronicle takes its name from the historic tradition of the newspaper of record — a publication that sets down what is known, where it is, and how to find it. That is precisely what this directory aims to do: record the web's notable presences in an orderly, accessible form, available to all.
