Remember the old web directories (Yahoo, DMOZ)? They were a great way to find your way around, and thanks to the usual nostalgia cycle there are some new examples. Here are a couple I’ve run into:
1) Early Web Links: “Before the internet went corporate, it was weird, wonderful, and deeply personal. People built websites just because they had something to share. This directory is full of sites that bring back that feeling.” Results for “language.”
2) Curlie: “Collect the best websites for any topic!” Results for “Russian literature.”
Update. More:
3) Bubbles: “5054 independent, personal blogs. One front page. Ranked by votes and freshness, shaped by you.”
4) ooh.directory: “A collection of 2,433 blogs about every topic”
5) tildeverse.org: “we’re a loose association of like-minded tilde communities.”
Good to see the worthy Zompist on the first page of the “Language” results:

[I have no personal interest in constructing languages, when there are so many spontaneously generated ones out there to enjoy; but I’m happy that there are people who do have such an interest.]
Exactly.
