    I went to check and was surprised that I couldn't find a link to the Yahoo! Directory from the Yahoo! home page anymore. The links in the directory are indeed showing as static links now.

    Looks like it's two steps forward and one step back...

    The directory used a redirected links for the listings in the past - now I'm seeing static links.

    I also see that the "open link in new window" option is no longer available...

    The directory link disappeared when they update the home page not long ago.
