Google - Directory
Directory - integrates Google's
sophisticated search technology with Open Directory pages to
create the most useful tool for finding information on the web.
Key improvements include the following:
The Google Web Directory starts with a collection of websites
selected by Open Directory volunteer editors. Google then
applies its patented PageRank technology and other factors to
rank the sites based on their importance. Horizontal bars, which
are displayed next to each web page, indicate Google's view of
the importance of the page. This distinctive approach to ranking
web sites enables the highest quality pages to appear first as
top results for any Google directory category.
