About a decade ago I tried to create an alternative to Google, using the Dewey Decimal System to group web domains by subject matter. My vision was that the website was a library, and domains were individual books. Rankings were a mixture of domain reputation and cultural significance.

The OCLC is very protective of their IP, and likes to sue.

Needless to say, my project was shut down before even getting off the ground.

I'm working on reviving the project, under a new classification system (The Open Categorization System), and would love any help I can get.

The project can be found here: https://github.com/ki4jgt/Open-Catalog-System
