Web Directories are now a whole new animal. Cheetahfind’s got it : “With ten comprehensive categories, as many as 200 subcategories and integrated search tool this directory is the best resource if you want to find something or if you want to be found”.Get a free search engine for your site. Submit your url for free. Or feel free to pay for a premium listing. Have it your way – but just do it! And for the budding webmaster, a one stop shop. Templates, clipart, online calculators and hit counters.

Even better, for the times when you need content, or are just feeling down. Encouraging news like “Alternatives to Declaring Bankruptcy”. No other news, but hey, that’s a start! After all, you need to be prepared for the worst.

Last but not least - find interesting connections. The top categories listed are Fishing, Bizarre, Recruiters, Developers & Publishers, and Used. I guess it all hangs together. Recruiters fish for candidates, after all. And they’d prefer used – new is a no-no where it comes to recruiting. With all the competition around, they’d need to use bizarre methods.

I’m not sure where Developers & Publishers fit in, unless as the exception that proves the rule. That’s gotta be it.
