DMOZ, the nearly 20 year old web directory, closed a few months ago. :bluesad: I wrote up an article on it and would like to share it here. Title: Re: DMOZ Post by: Rev. Powell on July 21, 2017, 12:43:51 PM I was an editor there in the cult movies section but I hadn't updated anything in years. R.I.P., it was a worthy project.
Title: Re: DMOZ Post by: Pacman000 on July 23, 2017, 11:40:08 AM There is an attempt to bring it back under a new name, Curlie's.org.
You might check resource-zone to see if you can't get your old account reactivated. Title: Re: DMOZ Post by: Pacman000 on November 14, 2017, 04:29:51 PM Have to bump this because...
THE EDITORS HAVE FINALLY RE-LAUNCHED THE DIRECTORY!!!! Here: http://curlie.org/ (http://curlie.org/) :teddyr: :teddyr: :teddyr: :teddyr: :teddyr: Title: Re: DMOZ Post by: Pacman000 on August 20, 2018, 09:47:12 AM http://curlie.org/, (http://curlie.org/,) the DMOZ successor project, is now accepting new editor applications. DMOZ was a (nearly) 20 year old web directory organized by volunteers. It broke web pages into a series of categories users could browse through. It lost its home & domain name when AOL decided to stop supporting the project in 2017.
Title: Re: DMOZ Post by: Pacman000 on March 09, 2019, 10:53:35 AM If you have a favorite video game series, I might suggest volunteering to edit a category here: http://curlie.org/Games/Video_Games/ (http://curlie.org/Games/Video_Games/)
Most video game categories are small; you can get used to the editor interface fairly easily, then volunteer to take over another category. It only takes half-an-hour a week to add sites & clean up old suggestions/dead links. Less, once a category is already cleaned up. |
