    Most directory links in 2012 are practically worthless. There are a few high-powered directories — such as DMOZ and Yahoo! Directory, among others — that offer what I consider to be worthwhile links.

    I agree that directory submission is a method used few years back and was very much popular. Now Google wants to how better you have made a social circle on the web to consider you an authority on the web.

    To acheive quality links for our site we have to do work on directory submission, but one thing we have to remember is that we should submit our site on high page rank directory sites only.This will help to get high rank on major search engines.

    Directory submissions are not something you should be worrying about anymore. They'll do more harm that anything. You can submit to quality directories like Yahoo and DMOZ, but even they aren't going to give you the juice you're looking for.

    Reciprocal links basically means that you give me a link, I give you a link.
