I just watched that documentary entitled "Bush's Brain" and as a conservative myself, I was very shocked and appalled by some of the actions of Mr. Karl Rove...I had heard this fella was a rather slippery idget, but some of the things that he may have done are simply dispicable and are not indicative of the "right".....I could not believe that he had the nerve to blast Sen. McCain regarding his military service....simply disgusting Just was wondering if anyone else saw this one?

Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, dmoz answer to everything? Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetuer adipiscing elit, sed diam nonummy nibh euismod tincidunt ut laoreet dolore magna aliquam erat volutpat. Ut wisi enim ad minim veniam, quis nostrud exerci tation ullamcorper suscipit lobortis nisl ut aliquip ex ea commodo consequat. Is dmoz the real driving force behind Google or can you get Google rankings without it? Just asking.

I had a thread that I got exremely frustrated with for many reasons, I am sure it may have some effect on my future within the directory but I accept that as I went and made an ass of myself by relying on some information that was sent to me that in most cases was not correct, and because it offered the best answer for my concerns I had no problem accepting it and using that info here. After taking a day or two away I found it wrong with what I had done with poking at the editors but this was from frustration and information I wanted to believe at the time. I didnt want to just walk away without letting the editors and modorators know my feelings in the end and now …

I just thought I'd stop in and say hi from the great state of Minnesota. I'm a hopeful editor for my rural hometown's category and I believe in DMOZ's mission to provide quality, unique, and interesting content. In regards to the Internet, my main interest is in forum communities. The dynamics of such communities fascinate me, whether it's moderating or just participating. Hopefully I'll get to know some of you over time. Take care!

hi, going against the tide of what is usally said about DMOZ editors, i think it's about time i did another appreciation thread. i did one back on October 31, 2002, 11:59 PM on this particular forum. so i think another one is due! heck it's almost been 3 years. in particulary myself and my collegue jimmy (who was the one who pointed to me that indexing is becoming more frequent) give thanks to the editors that frequent the Australia region, we have noticed an increase in submissions getting listed in a quicker time frame over the past 3-6 months. we hope we make the work for you's easy by providing good descriptions on the sites, but if you's have any furt…

Hi everyone. This is just a thread to pass along an idea, and perhaps someone out there may find it useful. If you think for a moment, and wonder how people's lives are made better to some degree simply because of the existance of non-profit and charitable organizations. For example, if you've ever had a family member that has received hospice care. Or maybe someone you know has a disability. On a much broader scale, the pure water you drink, the clean air you breathe, the education you've recieved -- much of these are made possible due to the efforts and/or supplemental assistance from non-profit organizations. Many non-profit organizations are started mostly …

I'm sorry, but I just have to have a little fun with this ... But I'm amazed at how prominently the notice of submission status discontinuance is posted throughout the RZ and even in many Ed/Mod signature blocks and yet folks STILL ask ... Just as funny though, are the one's who think they can "skirt" the issue by conjuring up "tales" of how an editor said to check back after "x" date and now what?? Or even the ones who think they're smart enough to find new ways to ask ... get real! I know that it must be very frustrating for you poor Editors, Moderators et al, but at the same time, I hope you're able to take with a grain of salt and simply laugh at the stupidit…

Hi everyone, I wanted to introduce myself. My name is LeAnne, I applied to become an editor to a category a month or so back and received a response that it was to large of a category for a new editor so I just now reapplied for a smaller local category. I am a SAHM to 3 little ones in NC-USA. Looking forward to getting to know everyone.

Today, I was accepted as an editor! I was denied only once of two times applying for an editorless fifth-tier category. Here's what I screwed up in the first app: My sample site additions belonged more precisely in a parallel category that I didn't recall existed. In the app, I pointed out several problematic links in the category. I made sure the reviewer of my app knew I had a thorough understanding of what good and poor links for the category were. I hope these tips serve a worthy applicant well! Take care!

I mentioned in another part of the forum that about 5% of my site visitors this month are using Firefox. This is the first time I have seen a significant dent in the IE percentage. After trying it I have become a convert. No wish to be snobbish, but my customers often come from higher socio-economic groups and maybe these people are more open to trying new browsers than the majority of the surfing public. To anyone with their own site and access to the stats, what percentage of Firefox visitors are you getting? It would be interesting to know whether it is a commercial site or not and any view (albeit maybe subjective) you have about the demographics of your visi…
