I don't like DMOZ. It eat itself grateful bureaucratic including methods. No one of my sites was reviewed started from 2005...

This is the first I have heard of Google's "own" directory, I look forward to seeing how this will pan out.

I have only managed to get listed once out of perhaps 10 site submissions (not all owned by me) so I don't bother. Rather than sling mud at the ODP, let's wait for Google to unveil its own directory - its hiring in the Local and Classifieds arena suggests that something is brewing there.

Now that's put a smile on my face. DMOZ have for way too long been seen as an "authority" in the directory world - now they're getting their just rewards for a pretty poor service over the last few years.

I have a website that I submitted a domain that was a musical genre of the .com of the same name and was STILL not listed. DMOZ is garbage.

DMOZ is completely useless,and I think is not monitored by any editors too.

What's worse with dmoz is, if you are accepted at some point, that they gave you a decent title/description, 'cause good luck getting it changed if it's not. I've found it to be as bad as getting a title of your liking on linkpartners.

Wow, it figures. Just when you thought DMOZ's kharma was given a swift kick in the back end by the net universe.

So it got its rankings back, but I really wonder why did this happen? If there were only the funny redirects then we should buzz a bit about the issue and warn other webmasters...

lets pretend we have newbie readers and actually explian why it benefit or hurt the webmasters if DMOZ is removed from Google. I personally never liked the DMOZ system and yes I submitted some sites [ years ago] i never stop to think if they ever were approved or not...

DMOZ is SH*T, but unfortunately it's still showing up in my search results.

The shoemoney extortion was link bait.

It has been thoroughly debunked at many other sites. The evidence is still there.

There was no listed site to remove from the ODP, and therefore no threat of extortion.

His sites were banned in 2005 for trying to bribe editors.

I simply do not understand the problem, DMOZ is fine by me. Sure, they take a long time to approve a site; but at least the site, when it is eventually approved, is knwon to have been genuinly validated. I know there are a few more around, but please let's have a few more directories like DMOZ that only acept decent sites with genuine origional content. I believe that the influence of directory links generally in on the down, good directories like DMOZ are a bid plus and should be appreciated by search engines.

DMOZ is completely useless, and has been for a couple of years now. Anyone who thinks otherwise is just fooling themselves.
