Mahalo "Friend" or "Fan of"... how are they different?
You can leave an optional "tip" with Mahalo's virtual currency, Mahalo Dollars. If you are asking a difficult question that might require some research, or if you'd like a wide variety of feedback, a higher tip often leads to more answers to your question.

For example, on Jason, our CEO's, profile, you can see that he agrees to follow back nearly everyone who is following him, meaning he has thousands of "friends" and far fewer "fans."

William - I think I understand now. When you click on the "Add as a friend" link on someone's profile page, you are "following" that person. I would appear in that person's "My fans" section. That person would appear in my "Fan of" section. If that person clicks on "Add as a friend" on my profile page, they become my friend and I become their friend.
When they say "follow" they don't necessarily mean like on Twitter. Instead you can see what links they have added to Mahalo. As far as I know, that is the only thing you will see (at this point) beyond checking their profile.
Thanks!
I am dense. I still don't get it. What do you mean by "Follow" and what is implied by the two way relationship.
