Adobe AIR on Mahalo
January 10th, 2008 by ryanstewart
Read/WriteWeb had a post about Mahalo, a people-powered search engine that I’d looked at in the past but hadn’t paid a lot of attention to. Supposedly it’s traffic is growing so I decided to check out Rich Internet Applications and then Adobe AIR. The Adobe AIR entry is actually pretty good. They cover all the biggies and even have a good rundown of “fast facts”. Their results for rich Internet application are non existent, so it isn’t an entirely perfect system but maybe there is something to this humanized search thing.

I wrote the page (look at the bottom of the page “This page was created by Fitzchev”), i thought it was a good idea
Now we should do the same for Flex, Thermo etc… you could register as a Greenhouse Part Time Guide and start with RIA !

Ahhh, I skipped right past that and saw that ‘Juan’ was in charge of the page. Thanks for setting it up Fitzchev! I always feel a little strange about taking charge of external sites (like Mahalo and Wikipedia) and editing content when I work for Adobe. Our community, like you, does a much better job.

I never heard about Mahalo till today. Yet I have made a review of wikisearch 2 or 3 weeks ago on my blog. Its a good thing that there are new concepts, new ideas, yet many of these systems need a lot of work to develop. Like for example, wikisearch was okay and users can decide if a site ranks high or not because they could “vote” for that site. The bad part was that in this way they can easily manipulate any site and with this whole thing with competition….
Anyway, lets see how things will go further.
Kind regards,
