…GravityDex does. A little background on the “Dex”. In early 2000, the GravityFed crew hand built a static links directory and named it GravityDex.com. The idea was to aggregate outdoor sports related web sites, and categorize them accordingly. At the time, it was quite the novel idea. There weren’t many niche directories on the web then. Hell, Yahoo! wasn’t even that much to write home about.
It wasn’t that long before we installed a links database to better manage the content, etc. It was going really well.
Fast forward two years. It was post 911 and the dot com world was turned on its head. Online ventures everywhere were closing their doors. But considering the GravityFed Network was built from the ground up, by two ski bums, with no money…well, we managed to survive. We just kept the sucker online.
It was probably three years solid and neither the Dex or the GravityFed site had a single manual update posted. The only thing we continued to do was validate link submissions now and then. They surprisingly kept coming, so we kept it growin’.
Today, GravityDex is thriving and stronger than ever. In fact, the database currently holds 13372 links in 1073 categories. Not too shaby. In addition to that, we also maintain an outdoor gear outlet & clearning house featuring more than 400,000 products from nearly 40 of the best outdoor stores on the web. So short story long: GO CHECK IT OUT and add your link! We’re proud of it.
The Dex gear marketplace includes a Gear Search Tool, Daily Gear Deals, Gear On Sale and more. Note that there are also RSS notification feeds for all these deals and specials offers.
