Mahalo, A Human Powered Search Directory

Friday November 16, 2007
Need to find something quickly on the web? You might want to try Mahalo, a human powered search directory. Here's how Mahalo works: you enter in a query, and you get a variety of results from video to direct answers to Fast Facts (a quick compilation of the most pertinent information for that query).

Sounds pretty ordinary, right? Well, here's the kicker: all your Mahalo results are quite nicely arranged on one convenient page. This is what makes Mahalo so addictive, because the Mahalo editors do a fantastic job of compiling the most relevant results, and you as the searcher get to reap the benefits of this whole process.
