Project GnuHoo's goal is to produce the most comprehensive directory of the web, by relying on a vast army of volunteer editors. Problem statement The web continues to grow at staggering rates. Automated search engines are increasingly unable to turn up useful results to search queries. The small paid editorial staffs at commercial directory sites can't keep up with submissions, and the quality and comprehensiveness of their directories has suffered. Link rot is setting in and they can't keep pace with the growth of the Internet. GnuHoo's solution Instead of fighting the explosive growth of the Internet, GnuHoo provides the means for the Internet to organize itself. As the Internet grows, so do the number of net-citizens. These citizens can each organize a small portion of the web and present it back to the rest of the population, culling out the bad and useless and keeping only best content. GnuHoo Seeks Editors GnuHoo is seeking editors of categories. Many categories are open, and if the category you want isn't in the directory, we'll create it.
