It is a directory of topical directories. Lisitng portals like PD and Silver Key (and more mainstream subjects). I'd be interested in any impressions or thoughts.
literally 7 months ago i started trying to put this site up and I finally have it running in a beta-ish mode .. Brad has been helping get things squared away. I still have its forums to work out and a few bugs and just general text to write.
The interesting feature is it allows category moderators who can preside over set sections of the directory, adding and editing / updating listings.

thanks, Rychaerde, there is still a lot of work to be done .
I'm looking for moderators for categories, with a general directory like this it is difficult to know enough about all the categories to be the judge of a good resource or not. Brad is doing the genre stuff, which i'm glad of because he knows more about what is out there than I.
Even if anybody wants to submit a few directory sites that they find useful it would be a helpful, at this point submission can be without emails or membership. After the next batch of text and programming i have to do on the site i plan on rounding out some categories and promoting.
Once i get things rolling and have more done than i have to do, it should get failr busy.

Very good site. I like the way you've listed the categories. I spent about half an hour checking out the listings, and am impressed -- to the point I registered.
I noted there is a line that says "members ..... comments"
I would like to comment there, but there was no clear way to do so, or I missed it (probable!).
That's as good a site for the purpose as I've seen. You really are going to get busy, I predict. It's very easy to use.

E-Tar,
The '151 links in 19 categories, with 17 clicks and 0 comments by 6 members.' ? the comments there are a count of the comments made in the categories about the individual lisitngs .. it is a poorly constructed sentence , mostly because it is generated in bits and pieces by the program as the page is put together and the original programmer wanted to get a lot of information in a little space. That area is on the work list
I'm glad your impression is good. As you know it is sometimes difficult to gauge how people will receive the end result of a project.
