Web terminology

[Sloan, Bernie]

I have a (probably dumb) question about terminology.....

What do you call those sites that basically consist of
links to other useful sites? They can be annotated (like
the Librarians' Index to the Internet), or simply lists of
unannotated links.

I tend to think of them as meta sites, but I was wondering
if there is another term that's commonly used........

Thanks!
