http://dmoz.org/about.html lists two

1. help make the Web a better place
2. be recognized as an expert in your chosen topic.

3. If you are going to pull together your own list of "favorites" on a topic, why not make it available to others?

4. To learn something new about topics, organizing information, and people.
5. To read of a particular ODP data based directory being recommended as the best source on a particular topic.
6. To forget what you did before.

7. Many editors use their work at ODP on their resumes. Why not you? /images/icons/wink.gif
8. Relieve boredom. (I started on summer vacation from school, what else would there be to do?)
9. Build vocabulary.
10. Meet new people from all over the world.
