Mahalo Answers has been out now for a few months and users are starting to get their first pay. The minimum payout on Mahalo is $40 and 53 users earned that much or more.
40 extra beans for simply sharing your knowledge with users and helping them find what they are looking for...on the internet...human powered search, huh, whodathunk it. Turns out there are lots of people who would pay a buck or two get and get a fast answer without having to dig into the depths of the Google.
Yes, and unlike the algorithms that preceded the human search, these humans that operate the human powered search engine have a conscious look no further than Mahalo Answers purple belt Robbrown asked users what they would do with their first Mahalo payout and suggested users could donate some to Kiva.org.
I thought it was a great idea, I joined his group and made a loan on behalf of the Mahalo Answers community on Kiva.
It's nice to see Jason's entrepreneurial spirit is being passed on through the very machine we operate in and use online earners can help third world startups, startups of necessity, have a chance at surviving on the other side of the world. ...Kumbaya...
Anyway, if your a Mahalo Answers member, even if you don't want to make a loan, be sure to Join the Kiva.org website and join the Mahalo Answers Team.
