Mahalo – A Search Engine


Mahalo is a search engine which is powered by human. They say that the articles listed on their search results are well organized, comprehensive and spam free. Their basic idea is to get the web pages listed on the user preferences on particular search.

They will analyze the web pages and organize them manually (I am not sure). I think this is a better way to get really valuable content. If there is no results for the search term that you have entered they will show the search results by Google,yahoo and some more on tabs, the most valuable thing is you can send them a good link for that also by just creating a free account.

Basically they will not list every page that you are sending because they have an editorial process. And they will not list the spam sites, spam blogs, phishing sites, sites that do not have original content (a copy without permission), sites that have no origin and the sites that have adult content. And on the other hand they will list the sites which have original content, consistently updated, has clean layout etc.

And also if you have site they provide facility to tell them about it. On http://www.mahalo.com/Mahalo_Publishers_Guide they give more details on that. I think it is better to tell them about your site if you have valuable and original content.

Mahalo is on http://www.mahalo.com and you can find more details about them on http://www.mahalo.com/Mahalo_FAQ .

If you have any experience or more details on Mahalo please do share it with us.

Google API v3 with PHP using Blogger service

It was really hard for me to understand how the Google APIs are working at the first point and took few days for me to figure out. But after a successful working prototype it seems very easy. And also when I am searching for a simple example I was unable to find a good one that I can understand. So let me list down step by step what I have done with URLs and as simple as I can. Create a Google app location -  https://code.google.com/apis/console Switch on the "Blogger API v3" Get the latest APIs client library for PHP location -  https://code.google.com/p/google-api-php-client/downloads/list Upload the files to your host location on on localhost Extract the files to folder  named "GoogleClientApi" Create your php file outside of the folder  Copy paste following code into the file and do the changes as needed  By changing the scope and the service object you can access all the services that is given by Google APIs through the PHP API l...

Assets and Liabilities as Rich Dad, Poor Dad explains

I was reading "The rich dad poor dad by Robert Kiyosaki" here is a one point that he mentions on that. Basically Asset as he says is little bit different than on books. If something puts money in your pocket it is a asset. And Liabilities are the ones that takes money out of your pocket. OK for example a house or a car may seems like an Asset but it takes money out of you pocket to maintain them. But if you rent them or make them to make money at the end of the day you can convert it to a asset. Basically that what rich people do. They buy assets. Middle class buy liabilities (thinking those are assets) and stuff (a lot of them that not used or that not needed). Lower class buy to consume (basic needs like foods).

Simple book keeping basics

There are tons of jargon on accounting. But a lot of them are rubbish that used for categorizing the incomes, expenses and Tax. What really matters are Balance Sheet and P&L (profit & loss) statement. If you really knows to read and understand these two then you know the basic language in business.  I'll go deeper on these if you guys interest or else please Google and read about these two. Let me share a real world example of what I am talking about. Here is the Access Engineering PLC / Annual Report 2015/16 http://www.accessengsl.com/wp-content/uploads/2016/07/Annual-Report-2015-16.pdf Please go to page 149 of the report and you will see the Statement of Profit or Loss. And on page 150 of the report you see the Balance sheet (they call it as Statement of Financial Position). And you can see it is balanced (of cause it is balance sheet) Total Assets = Total Equity and Liabilities Basically these are the things that people are supposed look at before invest...
