DMOZ to be bought by BOTW?
Jeremy Schoemaker is reporting the Best of the Web directory is in discussions with AOL to purchase the Open Directory Project (DMOZ.org).
Long neglected by its erstwhile owner AOL, the Open Directory Project was at one time one of the formost directories on the Web. Listings from DMOZ still form the backbone of the influential Google Directory.
If the news is true, there might be renewed value in the ol’ Open Directory. The folks at Best of the Web are excellent webmasters and know a lot about the search marketing industry.
