    It's owned by Amazon, and A9 switched awhile back. I was expecting this, but had not visited the home page in awhile, looks like some kind of blog/commentary - http://www.alexa.com/ - they are calling it "Web Discovery Machine".
    Interesting. Google loses again.
    But it looks like DMOZ is still there.

    Well as long as alexa doesnt change its way of measuring traffic it wont be rated much.

    Huh, it does predate the A9 switch. Shows how often I visit anything more than the traffic pages.

    The service was terrible for some weeks. Not that anybody uses alexa as a search engine, mind you
