Mahalo is a human-powered search engine that we reviewed here at Killer Startups when it first became available, more than 15 months ago. Those who tried it out and found it useful will be interested in the following item.
Basically, Mahalo Follow is a toolbar that will enable the user to visualize Mahalo search results whenever another search engine is used and the results match a Mahalo page. This toolbar is available both for users of Mozilla Firefox and Internet Explorer, and it is very easy to install and set up. In any case, assistance is provided online should you need to dispel any doubts.
Mahalo Follow also makes it possible to submit links to Mahalo and all your favorite social bookmarking sites. This way, your links can be shared with other internauts in a supple and instant manner. Again, comprehensive troubleshooting tips for recommending links are provided.
Further features include a “Random” button that can be used to showcase random pages about specific contents, and a “Directory Access” link that will enable you to visualize items by category.
“Mahalo Follow makes sure you never miss Mahalo content that can save you time. Continue to use your preferred search engine, and when you search for something covered on Mahalo, Mahalo Follow will overlay the Mahalo Top 7 and Guide Note on the search result page. On one page you'll see the normal results from your preferred search engine and helpful Mahalo content. Mahalo Follow also makes it easy to submit links to Mahalo and enables you to simultaneously submit the link to all your other favorite social bookmarking sites.”
Those who are keen on Mahalo will find it a worthy addition to their browsers.
Will other browsers be taken into account in the future besides Firefox and Internet Explorer?
