    | Expired Domains dropping from Dmoz HI All I just wanted to let you all know that I think Dmoz is dropping listings of domains that have expired. The reason I think they are doing that is because I have over 100+ domains I bought in the past few months and a lot of them were listed in Dmoz, and when checking my domains today with 3 different programs and scripts.. I see they all no longer are listed in Dmoz,,  So you may want to check your domains if you have a dmoz listing.. Thanks Tom Dahne Expired Domain Software http://www.expireddomainsoftware.com |

| yeah, I was reading the dmoz forum the other day, to learn something for a site that will use the dmoz data, and they are trying to do just that. They found the thumbnails site is letting them find expired sites quickly as well.

| They have been doing this for atleast month or so. Back when I edited for them editors were using desktop scripts to check dead links. That was over two years ago. I'm sure by now it's automated.

| dmoz used to be who yahoo pulled some search results from dmoz.org is the site it's a directory where nobodies waste their time allowing your site to be in a category it's one of many marketing tools to promote a web site but the editors aren't all that even though they think they are |
