#=======================#

# Here's my idea of a good internet directory
#
# 1. permit user to specify his/her own hierarchy
#
# 2. permit dynamic filtering of these characteristics
#    at any level
#	language
#	space
#	time
#	attribute
#	part
#	action
#	relation
#


# Here's my idea of a good initial directory hierarchy
