"League to Save Lake Tahoe site:dmoz.org" gets that link for me (without the quotes) I think that search needs the site qualifier after the search term.

 

On a good day, searching for the url.tld using dmoz search also works (keeptahoeblue.org not http://www.keeptahoeblue.org). Search is quite often a couple of weeks behind the category though.

 

Also with that one, it was not checking the listing, but using human intuition to look in the connected category that found it.

After further review, it was the www that was messing it up rather than the order. Thanks. And now on to http://dmoz.org/Regional/North_America/United_States/California/Localities/S/South_Lake_Tahoe/Recreation_and_Sports/

 

Sunrise Ski and Board- The other rental places are in subcat skiing

Lake Tahoe Outdoors- No Longer at that address.

Tahoe Keys Marina- Probably belongs in http://dmoz.org/Regional/North_America/United_States/California/Localities/S/South_Lake_Tahoe/Business_and_Economy/Marine_Sales_and_Services/ although there is also a Tahoe Keys locality too. Note, the marine sales and services category has a ski rental site (Rainbow Mountain) that should go in the aforementioned skiing cat.

Williams Sports- See Powder House in Skiing cat. Two sites, same company.

 

In the skiing cat (http://dmoz.org/Regional/North_America/United_States/California/Localities/S/South_Lake_Tahoe/Recreation_and_Sports/Skiing/),

Skiing at Tahoe- Deep link for a site with several Tahoe listings.

Thanks

Lake Tahoe Activities- Redirect from discoverlaketahoe to tahoeactivities.com, which already has listing(s)

Lake Tahoe Ski Resorts- Mountain Resort Guides boilerplate content.

Mammoth Mountain Ski Report gomammoth.com -Returns nothing.

Mammoth Today-395.com/mammoth Also not responding. i think they may be related to gomammoth.com which may be why they are down together.

Ski Resort Guide- about.com?!

SnowBomb and Tahoe Card - Same site

Tahoe's Best- In #983 I mentioned a site with several questionable links. This is one of several questionable links from his other Lake Tahoe guide.

Dead/hijacked Links

 

Hello,

 

I go through these categories every once in a while (hoping to see my site, lol) and just thought I would report the bad links this time (they do annoy). I can't say for sure that the dead links aren't just temporary but can tell you there was a similar amount down a month ago (just can't be sure they were the same ones).

 

Category: http://dmoz.org/Sports/Strength_Sports/Bodybuilding/Training/

 

AAA Weight - Suspended (I'm sure it has been suspended for 1+ month)

 

Bionic Health - Now advertising web hosting

 

Home Exercise Help - Dead

 

Smarttraining.uk - Dead

The WeighTrainer - Dead

 

Workout.com - Now PPC Directory

 

 

Category: http://dmoz.org/Sports/Strength_Sports/Bodybuilding/Supplements/

 

Healthshield.us - I don't even know what the purpose of this site now is but am pretty sure it doesn't belong

 

Hope this helps,

 

JP

Ballons Over Lake Tahoe- is now at http://www.laketahoeballoons.com

Hornblower Cruises and Events- They have sold their Lake Tahoe interests (The Tahoe Queen) to Aramark. The new site is at http://www.laketahoecruises.com. This is the same company that runs the M.S. Dixie II which already has a listing (http://www.tahoedixie2.com).

Offbeat Travel- Yes, it is located in South Lake Tahoe but the onsite booking forms I find don't include 2005 as an option.

Duplicate and misplaced links

 

Greek Gear is listed twice and ConnectSports is listed twice on:

http://dmoz.org/Society/Organizations/Student/Fraternities_and_Sororities/Shopping/

 

Greek Gear Express - Large selection of gifts, clothing and party favors. Includes items from umbrellas to afghans. All organizations available.

http://www.greekgearexpress.com (refreshes to http://www.greekgear.com)

 

Greekgear.com - Large selection of Greek apparel, paddles, party favors, and other specialty merchandise.

http://www.greekgear.com

 

Connections Sports & Novelties - Greek sportswear and all sorts of lettered novelties like key chains, mousepads, and stationery.

http://www.connectsports.com/greek.html

 

ConnectSports.com - Custom fraternity and sorority sportswear and Greek merchandise.

----------------------------

Additionally, in the same category I noticed a site called Greek Gifts that has nothing to do with Fraternities/Sororities but rather with religious items and specialties of Greece.

http://www.grecianlook.com/

----------------------------

This site in the same category does not have Fraternity or Sorority related items either:

Stained Glass Fraternity and Sorority Gifts

#994 dealt with. Thank you particularly for the alternative URLs.

 

I am leaving the listing for the Medieval Week in Gotland, because the amount of content that is out of date is small and there seems no better alternative.
