Search engines are essentially algorithmically driven computer systems that reach out to the billions of websites on the internet (called crawling) which is then stored for later use when someone runs a search. Popular examples include Google, Yahoo, Bing, and others. Directories are listings of websites, often by category, with information that is harvested by humans. The largest example of a directory is DMOZ. While searching directories can be a more arduous process than using search engines, they provide a high amount of relevance to those looking for information since the human component ensures that the listings are of great value.
