A catch phrase will go here soon.

New York Wi-Fi

6/29/2005

Andrew is doing the job of public advocate for New York City before he even wins the job. This is brilliant great, free wi-fi for the greatest city in the world! Sign the petition after the jump!


Dear Jason,

Do you want your Wi-Fi?

Are you, like me, excited by the growing possibilities of new information technology and frustrated by how slowly our city government is moving to embrace them?

Are you outraged by the fact that children in South Korea have better and faster access to the Internet than kids in the South Bronx, and even kids in SoHo?

Do you think it’s fair for Verizon, Cablevision and Time-Warner to charge working families $600 a year for a connection that is ten times slower than what you can get in Tokyo?

Are you ashamed by the fact that our schools are ranked 41st in the country in the use of computers in education?

Do you want to fall behind our neighbors in Philadelphia and Boston as they bring wireless

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
