AI overview

DMOZ was a free, volunteer-maintained web directory that organized links to websites into categories, much like a library catalog for the internet. Though owned by AOL, it was built and kept up-to-date by a community of unpaid editors who believed in making web information openly accessible to everyone.

Scopo della directory era essenzialmente la raccolta e indicizzazione dei collegamenti reperiti nel World Wide Web.
