Directory Related Project - Feedback and Ideas Please

    I was thinking of creating a site similar to this one verifiedlive.com but for directories only.

    I thought of confirming the owners information via phone call and having all directory owners that register agreeing to a directory code of ethics via email type signature. I am not sure exactly how a company like this would get involved in disputes or keep records of them.

    What do you think of this idea?
    What would be some of the problems with a service like this?
    Should I try and get a few directory owners together to launch this type of site?
    Or should this only be done by non-directory owners?

    thanks

    Well, if you ask me I would tell you that I already have many guidelines and rules to follow and to create an extra one is going to make me sick.

    But it will add some benefits at least, so far I don't see much interest in this idea .

    Maybe it is not the right time.

    There is no question that there is a need to start formalising this industry, setting standards and most important of all making directory owners accountable. All it takes is enough people who share a common purpose and if there are others I am there. :)
