Remember the Google Directory, yes it is powered by the Open Directory Project (DMOZ.org), well it has finally been updated.

After 19 months of having old data, Google finally pulled an RDF dump of the ODP directory as of August 7, 2007 this past Saturday.

The last time Google updated the Google Directory was in February 2006.
