Web directory. RSS directories are similar to web directories, but contain collections of RSS feeds, instead of links to web sites. History[edit] During the early development of the web, there was a list of webservers edited by Tim Berners-Lee and hosted on the CERN webserver. One historical snapshot from 1992 remains.[4] Scope of listing[edit] Most of the directories are general in scope and list websites across a wide range of categories, regions and languages. Examples of well-known general web directories are Yahoo! Directories have various features in listing, often depend upon the price paid for inclusion: Human-edited directories[edit] A human-edited directory is created and maintained by editors who add links based on the policies particular to that directory. In response to these criticisms, some volunteer-edited directories have adopted wiki technology, to allow broader community participation in editing the directory (at the risk of introducing lower-quality, less objective entries).
