You don't have to change the content much, just present it in a more interesting way. Innovate! There are hundreds of ways to present the information in an exciting way. The viewers don't want or need another directory, they want experience. Do you think Technorati is a directory? It may work like one, but they decided not to make it that way. You shouldn't either.

quote:
ORIGINAL: jaybee But isn't that the problem? There are many other directories and there are more and more every day. It's getting to the stage where you Google for something and then have to pick your way around directories to actually find something relevant. What hacks me off more than anything else is using a directory that provides you with a link to another directory and another and another. I've done searches recently where I've spent 10 minutes or more just trying to find an actual site. Then you just have to reinvent the idea of a directory. If photo directories suck, invent Flickr. If video directories suck, invent YouTube. If directories in overall suck, invent Google. If blog directories suck also, invent Technorati. Oh yeah, I know... we're kicking a dead horse here...

You could build your own SE from resltr although to be honest it doesn't do anything for the crap content of searches ie. stuffed with directories, just saves a bit of time in trawling the results.

hey dude first let me say that I entered my site to your directory I have to agree with the rest of the comments that its another directory there are loads of them you must think of something that will make you unique try to find some kind of edge. I can tell you that when I create Snoogie which is an instant messaging site I tried to distinguish it from other by making it for communities and not a personal contact list (as the rest of the instant messaging software) so either have some kind of a graphical gizmo or some other idea to make standout anyway good luck dude
