Is this the end of directories ?.

Thank You.

Thank you
Why not a single answer

Search relevance, trust and meaningless SERP's

Pay per static brand link a better solution for professional publishers.

I am sure there is nothing som SE's fear more than good human ordered, ranked and collected links. Perhaps not Google, since no SE can compete with Google's speed. In addition since I personally regard Google as "a SE for Wikipedia" (The meta SE Clusty is better here IMO), Google can not be afraid of Wikipedia. And that also indicates that (IB)Links's are still the most important aspect of Google's SE algorithm. Difficult to make a better model.
