Yahoo! omarmt Open Directory Project

Nadat Google de Open Directory Project heeft laten vallen werd het bekend dat Yahoo! belang hecht aan de in de ODP opgenomen websites.

Op de website van Overture staat te lezen:

Yahoo! leverages the Open Directory Project (ODP) to further improve the user experience on distribution partner sites. ODP title, description and category meta data is used to enhance Yahoo!‘s relevant search results.

ODP is the largest, most comprehensive human-edited directory of the Web with a global community of volunteer editors. For more details on the Open Directory Project, please visit dmoz.org
