Comments on: Mahalo 2.0 is Wikipedia plus money

The curated search result service opens up its pages to user edits and pays them by sharing advertising revenues.

He must be doing well, I tried three searches and got a 503 service unavailable error. Tried again, a few minutes later and got results. Everybody loves bandwidth limitations....

Interesting. I like Jason and all, but it's disappointing that he's giving dedicated maintenance workers only 50% of their "claimed" page's ad revenues. Over on MyWikiBiz, for over two years, the volunteer editors can claim a page about any legal entity, maintain it, and keep 100% of the ad revenues within their content. MyWikiBiz draws only from the ad revenue generated by the thin footer of text-link ads at the bottom of every page. The top editors are pulling down about $30-$50 per month from ads.

Sounds like an okay idea in theory, but from listening to Calacanis on TWiT and reading his stuff, he seems way too slimy and shyster-like for me to invest my time into anything he fronts. Especially since it'll likely amount to just a few bucks, at most, every few months.

Is there a problem with the color green lately?

Mahalo Means 'Thank You' in Hawaiian =)
