Nothing sends me for my back button faster than another pitch for a new search engine. But wily reporter-turned-ringmaster Jason Calacanis has fooled me into giving his new human-powered search tool, Mahalo, a spin. How? Calacanis cleverly talks up Mahalo between photos of his impossibly adorable new puppies. Just as teenage boys find themselves reading the articles in Penthouse, I've been poring through Mahalo's impressively hand-compiled page of 55 links on — what else — bulldogs.
