My site made the DMOZ list! Ask me anything!
My site made the ODP! Holy poop-on-a-stick with cheese! I'm thrilled!!!

http://dmoz.org/News/Media/Media_Literacy/
Brainshrub's Morning News Scan: Posts headline summaries with brief commentary and counterpoint links.

The Open Directory Project (ODP) is a comprehensive human edited directory of the Web, compiled by a vast global community of volunteer editors. Only sites that provide unique content get posted.

The ODP powers core directory services for the most popular portals and search engines on the Web. (AOL Search, Netscape Search, Google, Lycos, DirectHit, and HotBot, and hundreds of others.)

In other words: When the big web-bots update their directories, my site will get extra weight when folks search for media literacy issues.

I'm thrilled! :D

Since traffic will probably start to increase, I'll have to speed up plans to switch from a frame-based site to a CMS.

Have I mentioned today how thrilled I am?

2. Thanks.
It's a labor of love that I've been doing since 2003.

Hopefully, by this time next week, people will be able to leave feedback like we do here at DU.

3. I gave it an "I like it" on StumbleUpon
No "You're the first" message, so you are already being recommended by that engine. Others who use StumbleUpon may also want to give it a kick. For those who don't know what I'm talking about: http://www.stumbleupon.com/

5. Wow! Thanks for introducing me to Stumbleupon!
Cool as heck! I've been using it all day. Best tool since Google.

If any other DUers use Stumbleupon, I'd appreciate the recommendation. (Hint, hint.)
