That's fair that the Chlo© result was a bug. I do know mistakes happen. I also appreciate that Mahalo is currently in Alpha and that we should expect to see improvements as it first moves into beta and then out of beta. I'll even admit that I'm somewhat biased due to a dislike of Jason and in my look at the site yesterday I wanted to find more bad than good. Still I wasn't impressed with what I saw. I realize there will be more pages in time and I don't hold the present lack of them as anything wrong and it's hard to know how the social aspects of the site like the user submitted links and the message boards will evolve. I would strongly suggest though that more time is taken to really look for quality content to link to. There were far too many links to obvious sites for me and I don't find that very useful. Find me some quality pages that I might not find easily and I'd find Mahalo a more valuable resource. I'll be happy to check the site again as it evolves and update this first look review or write a new one if I find things improved. Thanks for stopping by Lon.

The problem you encountered with Chlo© is a bug we are currently working to correct. I'm sorry you had a bad experience. We are in alpha mode and expanding our search terms every day. Web design is an important topic that we hope to cover soon. Thanks again, come back soon, mahalo! Thank you for exploring Mahalo!
