Mahalo Releases Social Search Features; Reaches 25,000 Pages Milestone
12/13/07 – Santa Monica-based Mahalo, the “human edited” search engine started by serial tech entrepreneur Jason Calacanis, this week released a series of new features at the Le Web 3 conference in Paris. The company says that the new features, dubbed “Mahalo Social,” allow users to collaborate in building trusted search results with friends.
Mahalo also announced that its index of search result pages has hit the company’s goal of 25,000 pages a year earlier than originally expected.
Additionally, Mahalo will be making the entire index available in both RSS and OPML formats, and under a Creative Commons Attribution-Noncommercial license, which allows individuals to use Mahalo results in a non-commercial setting, without having to ask permission.
Mahalo launched this summer to great fanfare, and is backed by Sequoia Capital, Elon Musk, Newscorp, CBS Corporation, Matt Coffin, Mark Cuban, Ted Leonsis, Jon Miller, Attractor Investment Management and Hubert Burda Media.
