Enternet Mall gets all of it's directory
content from
The
Open Directory Project.
| The
Open
Directory Project is the largest, most
comprehensive human-edited directory of the Web.
It is constructed and maintained by a vast, global
community of volunteer editors. |
|
The web continues to grow at staggering
rates. Automated search engines are increasingly unable
to turn up useful results to search queries. The small
paid editorial staffs at commercial directory sites can't
keep up with submissions, and the quality and comprehensiveness
of their directories has suffered. Link rot is setting
in and they can't keep pace with the growth of the Internet.
Instead of fighting the explosive
growth of the Internet, the Open Directory provides the
means for the Internet to organize itself. As the Internet
grows, so do the number of net-citizens. These citizens
can each organize a small portion of the web and present
it back to the rest of the population, culling out the
bad and useless and keeping only the best content.
The Open Directory is the most widely
distributed data base of Web content classified by humans.
Its editorial standards body of net-citizens provide the
collective brain behind resource discovery on the Web.
The Open Directory powers the core directory services
for the Web's largest and most popular search engines
and portals, including
Netscape Search,
AOL Search,
Google,
Lycos,
HotBot,
DirectHit,
and hundreds of
others.
