    Which directory you find more useful among these (See poll)

    If you have any good directory that you consider very useful by information or links mention it here

    Do n't mention your own directories!


    EDIT:I forgot to mention Yahoo's directory in my list,if you find it as more useful then vote others in the poll

    The trouble with this poll is you can only choose one or the other. Lots of directories are useful in one way or another, it's not a question of they're absolutely useful or entirely useless, there are degrees. Dmoz is useful in some categories, and pointless in others.

    Why are you asking this question anyway?

    Aviva I find useful for marketing information, I always seem to come away with a new idea whenever I read through the promotion topics.

    Yahoo couldn't make the list? Or JoeAnt?

    A poll with only 2 choices and one is the evil DMOZ is worthless.

    I can't edit the poll to include JoeAnt and Yahoo,

    But why do you consider Dmoz as evil?

    Dmoz is very helpful when you want to research some information.

    I think "Others" is the right answer.

    I would say GII, Romow, Alive, and Aviva. Although their primary function is a directory, they also provide other resources such as blogs and webmaster tools.
