The popularity of Web directories began with the World Wide Web Virtual Library which allowed anyone to add a new resource without restriction. The directory grew so large that it became a victim of it's own success. Then came Yahoo which allowed anyone to submit a new resource, but it was only published after being reviewed by an editor. NewHoo, which recently joined Netscape and the Mozilla project, is another directory similar to Yahoo, except the editors are all volunteers.
Unfortunately, there are not many options for building your own Web directory unless you're going to roll your own; so, that is what we're going to do. If you don't know why a Web directory is useful, allow me to provide an example. Many Web sites are comprised of hundreds, sometimes thousands of pages. It can be difficult to navigate through the mass of information. Some have experimented with various navigation widgets that are often less than useful, annoy users, and upset the user's focus. The addition of a keyword search engine is useful, but it can be too useful at times. A Web directory is a tool you can offer your users that is less intrusive than a Java or Java-script widget and allows users to browse information on your site in an hierarchical manner.
