Open Directory Project |
The Open Directory Project (ODP) also called DMoz is a massive directory continually expanded by volunteers. What sets ODP apart is that it makes its database of indexed documents available to other directories & search engines. It was followed by many others like Zeal and Gimpsy. A listing in the ODP results in the page automatically being listed in many other directories like Google directory and search engines. The model of using volunteer editors is fairly ambitious - and surprisingly successful. ODP is a mammoth achievement and an asset to the online world. Comments: | | | | |
