    I could just imagine Anthony applying to, and being accepted to the Republican section under Politics. The results would be catastrophic with every search for "republican" leading to a dmoz page with anchor text showing keywords such as: haliburton, oil, bush, cheney, nixon, etc. And not a single link to a UN oil scandal site. :D

    The Open Directory search is temporarily unavailable. Please try back later.

    I know good sites when I see them, GTech's, GEM's and Minstrel's would all be in my directory, in fact I am going to start one and blow their doors off.

    If anyone wants to help let me know :eek:

    I agree ... even if the category has a corrupt editor, he will not list it ... at least not for a while.

    Dude that's a PR 5 page with 48 links. Is it really worth that much cash?

    Maybe for a PR 6 or 7...

    Whilst I understand the editors are volunteers, and aren't getting paid for it, you'd think they could be a bit more helpful.

    Thing is, with DMOZ, it's all the other links you will be getting from sites that use DMOZ data. IMO, that's what makes a DMOZ listing valuable.

    It would be great to get your directory data open sourced out like DMOZ does; think of all the incoming links, which probably helps give DMOZ that high PR anyway. The webmaster of WOWDirectory posted once that he was planning on open sourcing his data at some point. I'd do it with my own directory, except (a) I doubt anyone would want a mere 1,100 links and (b) I have no idea how to do it.

    rb: Wouldn't it be better if you just used the $1k to submit to 20 or so paid directories @ $50 each (approx.)?? Or, you could submit to Yahoo directory and 14 others. Just a thought!!

    You would think with the large workload on these editors, they would employ more of the people applying for editors..

    Am I wrong in saying this???

    How about I make 10 paid directories and you can pay me to get in all of them? ;)
