The fact that Google aren't happy about this deal speaks volumes.

And Microsoft aren't in the business of keeping Google happy.

Ergo....

Also, the spin in that blog post is making me dizzy.... :)
Over-played the "we're open and all about the user" vs closed-hostile-portal (heh portal, nice one) thang, imho....

We've lent on a few people, and they're not going to link to you.
We may ask you to return the favor someday....

No wait....

Jason's right.

How does DMOZ intend to get round the retention/recruitment/quality problem if the opposition pays?

Nope, but I find saying you're from New Zealand gets you no traction in US tech media whatsoever ;)

>>I'm sure there's some strategy behind linking to the editor's page

Well spotted :)

My question is: has anything changed?

Meh. Mine is funnier :)

And there is much truth in jest, as any webmaster who has experienced DMOZ would attest.

DMOZ editor, by any chance?
