Search Engine News
by Arun Radhakrishnan on January 7, 2008
Social search engines have been coming of age since last year. While there are different approaches being taken, from totally user bookmarked content to human indexed content, essentially these are different facets to social organization of content over the web.
Mahalo.com, a social search site launched with much fanfare by Jason Calacanis has recently added more features that make the search engine more socially interactive.
SearchEngineLand reports that the new features from Mahalo include:
Addition of new content to del.icio.us, Ma.gnolia, Mahalo Social and twitter in a single click.
Sidebar for tips
Creation of stub pages (that are moderated by a separate staff).
It does seem that Mahalo is trying to incorporate the best of social features from all content indexing and content repositories on the web. Though it is a fact that content is rabidly being added to the web, perhaps making sense of all the burgeoning data does require human intervention.
How often do you visit Mahalo for searching? Have you felt that the social way is the WAY to go ahead in search?
