As an editor, I feel I am a user of ODP datas too. When I surf on the Internet, I wonder all the time if the information I am reading is valuable for our directory. I use directly Dmoz to find "topics" that I would not have thought before and I crawl the directory sometime randomly - like a squirrel in a tree - to broaden my culture. I consider this directory list websites rather than marketing products visible in a search engine query list. I have also the power to set my own algorithms to find the information manually - it is not the case in a search engine (they are complementary anyway). My feeling is that search engines will give more and more features found in a directory (like categorization) and a directory like Dmoz as probably much more to offer, with the help of a real partnership.
