Mahalo Follow Firefox Extension
I got pinged by a friend this morning to check out Mahalo’s new Firefox extension called Mahalo Follow. Pretty interesting. I installed it and started cruising around the net. Now showing me other sites that are relevant is nothing new but Mahalo Follow takes a different approach and shows me sites that are relevant based on the context of the page… Not just the domain.
For instance as you can see in this screen shot with seomoz it shows me sites its targeting for “SEO”. Also you have the option to recommend the site or not and even to randomly hit other Mahalo sites. I think this is a big social piece that I thought Mahalo was missing. I wish they would let you easily comment on the sites but that maybe coming in the future.
Another example I stumbled upon (no pun intended) was when I was visiting my favorite ringtone website (that I also own) and looked for Linkin Park Ringtones it shows me relevant Linkin Park sites including information about there newest album, lyrics, and even pages with there latest videos:
I think college students and people doing research online will find this kind of tool very useful.

This looks awesome! I will install this on firefox right now. too bad they don’t make it for opera..
Kind of neat but I can see how this would get really annoying… I like having my browser maximized 99.9999% of the time.
Maybe I just need a larger monitor!
Thanks for sharing, I am going to try this out too
thats pretty cool tool i will ahve to check it out. when doing research.
I’ll Pass On That For Now
Ugh too many applications to use right now…I haven’t really gotten the hang on using stumble related applications…sucks up too much of my precious time for now…I’ll get around to it one day!

meh stumbleupon is much better
Lol. I installed it… meh. Pretty ok I guess.
I love the “Disclaimer”
Interesting little app but that’s valuable screen real estate to be giving up…
Meh, nothing too special. Im sure when that add some new features it will be much better though
I like it, it doesnt give me random unrelated sites like stumbleupon
Looks cool. I need to use more Firefox addons like this.
And you are right ^^ - seems alot better than Stumble Upon.
Drinking the Mahalo koolaid I see.
That’s a great result the toolbar is showing for the SEOmoz homepage while you’re already on that page. Do you really need Mahalo’s help to find the page you’re on?
Way too many dolphins and flowers… and everytime I’d close it, it’d pop back up on a Google search, even after I disabled the add-on. Eventually unistalled it, because I if I can’t control something (simple open/close), then I don’t like it. That all said, I did like the links it provided for some sites…
This would have been an awesome tool to have back in the reciprocal linking days of SEO.
very nice!
Like the name, the plug in seems useful.
Every time I hear “Mahalo” I think of Calacanis, and that’s not a good thing.
Interesting toy. The question is : does firefox really need another extension ?
Nice extension.
Very good, this way you find related site without searching it.
[...] Mahalo Follow Firefox Extension [...]
Thanks for sharing. I will try this out and see how it goes.
At first glance I overlooked it as another “try these searches” extension… but it actually seems really useful/decently made@!
