The Australian based LookSmart directory is one of the few human edited web directories these days, and they have plans to take on its largest competitor Yahoo!.

Read all about their plans over in this article at Andover.

I personally think that Yahoo needs a kick in the pants and some competition. Maybe then they'll remember that it was their outstanding directory service that got them to the top. When was the last time an outdated link on the Yahoo directory was updated in under a fortnight?

Dan lives a quiet life in the bustling city of Milwaukee, WI. Although he founded what would become evolt.org in 1998, he's since moved on to other projects and is now the owner of Progressive Networks, a Zimbra hosting company based in Milwaukee.
