Sorry, another conspiracy theory (or 2)... it's that Google thing again!!

I think Google may be dropping DMOZ as it's directory listing

In the run up to flotation big G could be looking to develop a paid-for
directory system as an additional revenue source and the Florida mess is
masking there real intention.

Check your DMOZ listing and see if you've lost ratings on the key search
terms in the title and description

Alternatively... it's just been a massive SNAFU by a programmer who had to
many googles the night before?

Then again... etc etc

2004 is going to be interesting and challenging to the marketer who doesn't
want to pay-for-traffic

Maybe the Google Elderado is drawing to a close

Best regards

I SERIOUSLY doubt this. To controversial, and would be a public
relations disaster. Much safer and profitable for Google to just sell
Adwords.

YES - let's drop dmoz!!! I'll vote for this solution to get rid of those
little self proclaimed "gods" - get the paid directory inclusion in Google!
