Globaleaks is good reputation to the Tor network Ahmia.fi could extend the visibility of Globaleaks on the search results.

Together with GlobaLeaks: RESTful API according to Globaleaks' needs and an UI to show information about Globaleaks nodes.

Something similar to LeakDirectory plan:

"LeakDirectory

A goal of GlobaLeaks is to reach a big number of whistleblowing sites that are dedicated to certain topics and certain geographical areas. As a whistleblower it might be difficult to choose which one is the best to use, or which node accepts the information that he wishes to speak out about.

LeakDirectory will fill this gap by creating an archive of all existing GlobaLeaks sites and whistleblowing related material. When a node administrator sets up a GlobaLeaks site he can choose to have it published to LeakDirectory.

From there the users will be able to comment on it and review it. The profiles of the sites will include the impact that the site has had (i.e. what submissions have led to something). LeakDirectory will allow whistleblowers to make an informed decision as to what is the best recipient of the information they have. It will be the App Store of Whistleblowing sites. LeakDirectory may also show statistics on whistleblowing site operations and submission form inquiry details from registered whistleblowing sites, given that they decided to publish those data. LeakDirectory will provide as OpenData all its database and information to stimulate further analysis on the whistleblowing environment.

LeakDirectory represent also a security asset in the whistleblowing environment because, in a distributed network, the amount of unreliable (or even rogue) sites can be a damaging effect in the sites’ network. A user driven collaborative filter, like LD, can be the best way to select a trustable whistleblowing site."
