DMOZ, the nearly 20 year old web directory, closed a few months ago. 

I wrote up an article on it and would like to share it here.

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.

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.

Have to bump this because...

THE EDITORS HAVE FINALLY RE-LAUNCHED THE DIRECTORY!!!!

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.

If you have a favorite video game series, I might suggest volunteering to edit a category here: 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.
