I was at the Barnes and Nobles bookstore today, and thumbing through issue #137 and in their article about getting ranked in google they showed two different images and accompanying text about info.vilesilencer.com. The first showed the website, and the second showed how to download the excel spreadsheet with the list of directories. Congratulations to Dan and Info.Vilencer for being listed in a printed publication!

Here are a few links that will be helpful in spreading the word, and hopefully help fuel the fire started by this article.
Web Designer Magazine Website
Forum post I made on the Web Designer Magazine forums

I think it would be great if people will also consider posting something thoughtful to let the Web Designer Mag people know about the importance of directories. I hope that when you post you will choose your words carefully, so that we can present a good image to the publishers.

I also cross posted this same message on the Vilesilencer forums.
