Don't think of it as cynicism, it's just my interpretation of what appears to be a mixed message. You and Mahalo have caught a lot of flack for being a content farm, a scraper site, an ad-strewn wasteland, etc, and you've denied those claims, always seeming like your argument was 'Mahalo has good content and we're totally legit'. Now the message I get is 'we're getting rid of the junk content and focussing on making good, solid pages that will make people stop searching and stick around'. I suppose my interpretation could be off; I'm not referencing any particular quote of yours, so I may be remembering 'we don't have junk content' as 'we're not spamming our content, whether you think it's junk or not'. To answer your question, the Mahalo page you linked looks great (and the amount of content is almost overwhelming at first glance). This definitely isn't the Mahalo I remember, and reading your comments here (and what others have said about your comments elsewhere), you don't sound like the Jason Calcanis I've heard so much about. Evil robot twin? Or genuine individual concerned with making good content people want? Only time will tell, but if you're not here to harvest all our organs I'm looking forward to seeing what you have planned.
