ZURL: the midget Yahoo

ZURL claims to be “the last URL you’ll ever need.” This implementation of the Open Directory taxonomy is gussied up as a Yahoo!-style deeper-and-deeper heirarchy, but with far too few categories—the top level is currently only Business, Cities, Companies, Drink, Health, Hobbies, Law, MLB, Medicine, NBA, NCAA, NHL, News, Olympics, People, States, Technology, US Soccer, and World. “Help build the largest human-edited directory on the web.” (hat tip to Susan Mernit).
