There's a Mahalo 'community'?
- tptacek 16y agoSure, in the sense that there is also a Demand Media 'community'.
- jcromartie 16y agoI was about to make the exact same quip :)
- mcknz 16y agoAt least it's not a message to the Hacker News community.
- famfam 16y agoI love how snarky comments are downvoted on HN UNLESS they're about Mahalo. 30 more karma to go, then I'm going to come back and downvote you and everyone else making the same comment on this thread.
- dschobel 16y agoHN has a general disdain towards anything which is detrimental to the online landscape (spam, bad pieces of legislation, etc). No one really gives a crap about Jason or Mahalo, the consensus just seems to be that it operates in the gray areas of SEO with little value added to the content they vacuum in. Feel free to correct the perception though.
- famfam 16y agoNot arguing about the dubiousness of Mahalo. I agree with the assessment. But I don't see why we're lowering the bar for the quality of comments when it's re: a maligned entity. Sorry, it's still HN, when I read a thread about Mahalo I'm not looking for a me-too dogpile of jokes or zings. I want to read some real analysis.
- jasonmcalacanis 16y agoActually, there is a really solid community of folks building pages, asking questions, providing answers, etc.
- what 16y agoI'm inclined to believe this.
