Directory Script

Hello

I am planning to run an online directory for a niche group. I was
wondering if somebody could tell me which open source directory
script's are available and if someone has used such scripts what has
been the experience. Also would like to understand what google-centric
or yahoo-centric feature to look for in such scripts.

Thanks in advance.

Hi,

* Install PHP-Nuke

* Disable all modules apart from links

* Make it possible to submit new links

* Accommodate for structure by instantiating categories.

If you are not happy with this idea (bloatware), see Scuttle or just do a
freshmeat.net/sourceforge.net search for 'link directory'. I only speak of
packages that I use.

Hope it helps,

Roy
