On well…

Leah and Andrea have to make a viral video within 5 days of today… let’s hope they do a good job.  I can’t wait to see what they will do :)

Here is Episode 2:

Even though Sarah Atwood and Lisa Brewster didn’t win, I am still very happy for Leah D’Emilio and Andrea Rene.  Best of luck to both of you…  Since I wasn’t voting for either one… I will have to see who does the best viral video.  Let the race begin!!!  Who ever does the best job get’s my vote!  Even though my vote probably doesn’t count… I will still comment and blog about it :)

I have much more to say about this topic and probably more than I need to :)   So, I will be doing a podcast this evening with pcnerd37 of http://unofficialmahalopodcast.com/ and http://globalgeeknews.com/ on http://www.talkshoe.com.  Stay tuned.  The actual podcast will be out Friday or Saturday.

BTW… Kristina Allison is AWESOME!!! Best of luck to you!!

Approximately  24 days ago Mahalo (Jason Calacanis) started us on a journey that is almost done, and to be honest I am quite thankful that it is…

If you didn’t know, Veronica Belmont used to be the host of Mahalo Daily.  She was a great host and we enjoyed every episode she did :)   She moved on to Tekzilla with Patrick Norton.

So, the final days of Mahalo VLOGIdol are upon us and Veronica’s successor is on the horizon (as show below).  We have watched the MANY episodes of Mahalo VLOG Idols, Teasers and The Bachelon… and it will be done soon… oh but wait is it???  There’s more you ask???  well yes!! 
According to Jason Calacanis (as heard on a recent TWiT), each of the six finalists will be filming an individual episode to be judged. 
Sarah Atwood also said in her recent Tweet "so its down to the final 6. http://tinyurl.com/6odkqf stay tuned for my personally produced episode. YAH!"

Mahalo VLOGIdol Finalists

I have to admit, after watching these ladies for about a month now, I wasn’t so sure that anyone could fill Veronica’s shoe’s.  However, I saw one young lady that seemed to "get it" and had the spunk to pull it off… unfortunately for us all, she did not make it and I was not very happy about it!!  Her name is Lisa Brewster.  She did not have any VLOGing experience, but she did have a spark that Mahalo needs… even though she had spark, the judges were not looking for her :(

So, we have six left…who do you think we will win?? 
Since Lisa didn’t win, I vote for Kristina or Leah.  Who do you want to win?

I have updated my form below, please vote!!
