I’ve recently spent a bit of time creating a more general Leeds site. I started off with the idea of having a portal (-style) front page mixing and matching the best bits of other sites (ahem, legally!) and then creating a web directory of Leeds websites.
Regarding the Web Directory - one of the annoyances I had with DMOZ and hence Google, and Yahoo too, was the fact they are global directories and don’t quite suit all regions. I also found the regional navigation a little difficult. Well, less difficult, more bugging.
Finally, I couldn’t manage to get a domain name of choice, so went for leedz.co.uk ! Zzzzzzzzz… haha.
