Open Directory Project: almost altruistic

The Open Directory Project:

The Open Directory Project is the largest, most comprehensive human-edited directory of the Web. It is constructed and maintained by a vast, global community of volunteer editors.

Anyone can be an editor of a subcategory of the catalog, making small edits, refusing bad submissions and so on.

I noted that the Swedish role-playing game scene was very ill-represented. There are thousands of small clubs in Sweden, and less than 40 had a registered website. How can the kids find folks to play with, if the organized people stay out of sight?

I am now the category editor of the very narrow catalog space of Open Directory – World: Svenska: Spel: Rollspel: Föreningar.

My next smart move will be an announcement on the homepage of Sweden’s body of role-playing associations; a call to action for clubs with a web oage to add their site to this free, highly publicized catalog.
