    None of the links in the yellow bar work

    When I click on it, it just stays on the same page.

    Yeah, it just loads very slowly. I don't think it's the categories, but it might be the server that you're on.

    I'm not too sure.

    I have dial-up and it loaded really fast!

    Just a suggestions, you may want to change your categories to just blog stuff or you will have an empty looking directory.
    Thanks again!

    What! People still have dial-up these days!? :D

    The directory itself loads quick, but the submit page loads slowly for me.

    Hmmm, well you have a category for blogs and the whole site is just for blogs so you can either get rid of the blog category and leave all the rest as blog topics or create categories for each kind of blogs.

    For example:
    Politics (top)
    U.S Politics
    Uk Politics
    India Politics
    World Poitics

    Like this!

    LMAO Yep it sucks but I live in a no tech zone. Where I live, very rural, cable and DSL comes with in three miles in either directions but thye won't bring it to me. I was going to try Hughes NET but everyome who has it has more problems than I do with dial-up.

    Back to the topic....all pages loaded really fast for me and I listed both in no time flat.

    The new categories look good and fit better with just blogs...good job, One more suggestion, if you want to expand categories later, you could do regional categories and different parts of the US and the world as sub categories.

    Thanks again for the adds and keep up the good work, looks like you are adding fast. If you want feel free to add to the directory in my sig.

    Thanks. I don't think i will add categories just yet, i will keep it simple, and I think too many slows down my DB. I've had quite a few submissions but all are welcome!

    I can't seem to add URL to your directory by the way.
