Well, did you watch my talk about pivoting from DLD? In that talk I outline how Mahalo's human-powered search vision got us to the top 400 sites, but that it wasn't growing and the users wanted more how to/instructional content. We iterated, and mahalo is a top 200 site that also gets 1M+ views a day on YouTube. yes, 365M views of our 23k videos every year. I do think your question "i should check Mahalo" is an EXCELLENT one. Human-powered search doesn't have that draw, but I think free instructional videos will. If you wanted to speak Russian or make perfect grilled cheese or solve a video game you would do well to come to Mahalo.com. Direct traffic is the real test of a sites worth... and we're very focused on growing that with high-quality instruction. We have tons of money and tons of revenue... we can't go bankrupt if we can easily make a profit can we? :-) Talk to me in one year and we'll be in the top 100 sites and have 100M+ views a month on YouTube. :-)
