Forum threads by category.

Categories that I hope to edit in the future and/or categories that do not yet exist.

For the most part, these are works in progress.

My semi-controversial list of "Hidden ODP Files",
designed to help ODP editors quickly locate these useful, informative, not-quite secret but sometimes hard-to-find files.

None of these files are password protected and all can be found through simple searches on AltaVista and other search engines. However, they are not easy to find through the ODP itself or URL browsing, hence the adjective "hidden".

See:
"What's up with the "hidden" files in the dmoz.org root directory?" and
"Why would you want the ODP cool site awards in your bookmarks?"
for further discussion and analysis.

My small but growing ODP Reference center: links and information.

Information on Robozilla, the robotic editing machine whose mission is to destroy all bad links within the Open Directory.

This will eventually contain my ruminations on "ODP theory", if I ever get around to it...
