A catch phrase will go here soon.

and the blogosphere splits into two…

Seems to me that the blogosphere is poised to split into two groups:

1. Those who believe that content owners and publishers have the right to not have their origional work altered IN ITS ORIGIONAL FORM.

and

2. Those who believe that once content lands on your desk(top) you are free to do with it what you will.

Of course, those two things are the same thing today. You are looking at Boingboing.net in it’s origional form and you can change that origional form instantly. For example, you could write a scriptlike google has doneto change the content at Boingboing.net.

The Cory’s of the world will say it’s their content now and they can do with it what hey will.
The Calacanis’ of the world will say it’s our content, and if you want to alterate in a fair use kind of way go for it.

Of course, this situation is about people building *businesses* on top of the processs of the deconstructing content.

Hello, my name is Jason. Welcome to my blog on the interwebs. You can reach me on twitter @jason and by email at jason@calacanis.com. My Skype is jasoncalacanis, and my mobile phone is 310-456-4900.

I only pick up numbers I recognize, and in terms of emailing me, the best strategy is to write short, blunt and to the point requests. I can quickly respond to short messages, and many times I simply don't have the time to read five page pitches. In terms of taking meetings, I only do that after reviewing an actual product (not a business plan). So, the best time to ping me is when you have mockups or an alpha site. I don't read business plans, and I've never written one.

Other twitter accounts you can follow: Video Games, Open Angel Forum, and LAUNCH Conference & Newsletter
