Open Directory Launches The Official DMOZ Blog

The Open Directory just launched the official DMOZ blog. The first blog post explains that DMOZ wants to use this blog to:

• Provide authentic messages about DMOZ and the efforts of our volunteer community.
• Highlight enhancements, both current and future.
• Allow editors to showcase their categories and describe, in their own words, why DMOZ is so important.
• Recruit new editors. If you have access to the Web and are passionate about a category, find out how to apply.

But most importantly, they want to use the blog to get feedback from the community.

The Managing Editor, Bob Keating, said:

What do you think about DMOZ? Why do you use the directory or data? Is there something you would like to see fixed? When you’ve been around as long as we have, some people are bound to have great things to say, while others might have a few choice words based on their personal experience. Either way, we want to hear it :)
