Skype's Outage Another Example of Why Current Mahalo is Doomed


MahaloAs nearly everyone online knows by now, Skype is out of commission. It's down for the count. I was one of the first people to post about the Skype outage this morning, and since then, hundreds of others have as well. It's a hot topic on Google Hot Trends (#45), and I am seeing 500 people an hour from my first page Google result.


But where is the Mahalo page? The Mahalo Skype page has 3 headlines of which 2 are semi-outage related. Otherwise, searching for "Skype down" or "Skype outage" provides no result. Yet Google has indexed my page from 6AM and already shows it as one of the top pages.
