Online Directories
Dmoz – Probably the most popular and largest human edited search engine directory. All sites must be submitted and approved for placement in the directory.
Sproose – A user powered search engine. Users vote on the results and then the sites are ranked accordingly. This allows them to provide quality results, without all of the junk that you find in a typical search engine.
Directory Hound – Human edited directory modeled after Dmoz. All sites must be submitted and approved before entry. Covers all general categories.
Yoofindit.com – General information directory, all sites are reviewed by staff members.
Talent Trove – Social Networking site for actors and the like to connect and be discovered.
Best of the Web – Very popular directory, with strict submission guidelines. Also have an award program for the best ranked sites.
Mahalo – Jason Calacanis’ baby, a very serious contender with lots of funding, is best described as a cross between Wikipedia and Google. If a human edit result for your query doesn’t exist, you’ll be transferred to standard Google results.
