Productivity at Mahalo has gone off the rails this weekend as Guitar Hero III was released… I had no idea how popular the game was, so instead of fighting the productivity drain we’ve taken another approach: embrace it. We’re going to be playing the game for the next 72 hours at the office and we’ve got a bunch of Guides working on SERPs for things like: ...

Klipsch peeps are ON IT! (or, why being an "A...
Yesterday I wrote about how my new Klipsch speakers were going bonkers with a wild blaring alarm sound and how I could have avoided it if I had just researched the speakers in their forum or the Amazon reviews. Well, the speakers are working now (no idea why) and last night at 9:33PM—while I was doing Kanye West’s STRONGER at the Mahalo karaoke party—I got an email from someone...

Klipsch speaker problems -- wild loud noise plus...
I bought these well reviewed Klipsch ProMedia Ultra 2.0 PC speakers and they sounded amazing—for 30 seconds. Then they let out a high pitched scream that won’t stop. I woke up the whole house, puppies and all… GRRRRRRRRR…. If only I had read this review at Amazon… or the Klipsch forums where folks are venting on the Klipsch folks—and NO ONE FROM Klipsch seems...

My opinion on Google "slamming" folks for paid...
A lot of folks have been asking me about Google “slamming” sites over the past week for selling paid links and/or *perhaps* cross-linking between blogs/blog networks. [ Note: I put slamming in quotes for a reason.. if “slamming” means making the Google index better, well, that’s just fine with me. ] As many folks have pointed out, I essentially came up with the the...

Mahalo is turning out to be a very fun place to work. We eat lunch together four days a week at a 30 foot long table, we play basketball together, and we’ve got a writers group every Monday night. The How To group has started doing some food articles. Last month after a lunch debate about deep fried coca-cola, candy, and pizza they decided they would put the recipes to the test. They bought...

AdaptiveBlue is a very cool Firefox plugin that is very Web 3.0 (The Tim O’Reilly version of Web 3.0 that is, the semantic web… as opposed to the Calacanis version of Web 3.0, the “gifted” web :-). Their latest tool, a plugin for bloggers, automatically puts a little icon next to keywords and give users a context popup with a collection or related links. Similar in...
