Directory of New York State
Welcome to our New York State directory service. This directory was derived from the New York State component of the DMOZ directory. The DMOZ directory project was the largest human-edited directory on the planet but it is no longer being maintained. This directory is now an archive of the New York State component of the DMOZ directory. Even though the sites listed in the directory are not being updated, I still believe the archive has utility and many of the listed sites are still active on the net. I believe it is unfortunate that they stopped actively maintaining the project as I think it was an excellent worldwide directory of websites in its day.
