    This month DigitalPoint Forums took over Dmoz in terms of traffic.

    While DP showed a growth of 10% this year, Dmoz showed negative growth of about 50%.

    DigitalPoint current traffic is now over 100K daily.

    What in the world does DP have in common with DMOZ other than nothing?

    They are both way different..
    There should be no comparison between these two.

    Exactly. One is directory site and the other is a forum.
    Comparison should be between two similar type forums.

    Good to know the gaining popularity though.

    umm am I the only one that thinks it's weird he cited "comcast" as the source?

    did you mean comScore instead? comcast is an ISP while comScore is a metrics company....

    Good to know the forum is increasing in popularity but its a strange (and pretty useless) comparison to make.

    DP is a forum which means people get together .
    DMOZ is a directory only .
    I agree with Abhik .
    There should be no comparison between these two.

    and you can have your link here in dp easily but not in dmoz, which has become more difficult these days...
