Are there any sites with a "crowdsourced" directory? Might be interesting to have something like wiki-pedia that is a curated source, but curated by a larger group of volunteers. Although, I could see it getting corrupted by marketing purposes, but at the same time it might be able to be maintained cheaply by a foundation. Human intelligence providing grouped sites might be a useful asset, and there could be statistics/requirements for getting listed.



You can check-out http://www.curlie.org/ , which is the successor of DMoz, the volunteer-powered now-defunct Directory of Mozilla project.


There used to be dmoz.org, r.i.p. It doesn't seem to be working anymore, but it used to at least have an archive.


A mirror of the archive still exists: https://dmoztools.net/
