Mahalo mailing list snafus

We let a bunch of folks into the Mahalo Greenhouse over the last couple of days and, well, the list exploded with activity. We’re moving it to an approval system today so we don’t crush folks again.

Lessons learned:

  1. don’t auto add folks to a discussion list, certainly not without telling them (i learned this a long time ago after making the mistake my team made yesterday–my bad for not getting them my knowledge)
  2. don’t tell 100 folks to introduce themselves on said list

Sorry to folks who woke up with 40+ emails today!

Toro, a bulldog

Hello. My name is Jason.
I'm the CEO of Mahalo.com, a human powered search engine. I was previously the co-founder of Weblogs, Inc. with Brian Alvey, and the GM of Netscape.

I'm currently on the board of social shopping site ThisNext. You might remember me from my days as editor and CEO of the Silicon Alley Reporter magazine.

Mike Arrington and I partnered on the TechCrunch40 event in September. We're going to do it again next year.

This is my blog, this is where I live. You should also listen to my podcast.
