A catch phrase will go here soon.

Steve Jobs keynote starting up…

1/10/2006

Update 9:37AM: The servers went out–or pehaps our network–for a minute or two there, but we’re still up. If you’re pounding on your F5 key you might have problems, you might not. Memcache seems to be doing a really good job so far.
Update 9:41AM: Turns out peeps at the AOL server farm set us up to serve a max of 15k pages a minute–sounds reasonable, however we’re doing over 61k pages a minute right now!
Update 9:45AM: TUAW is doing their own discussion of the SteveNote live coverage–how meta.
Update 9:46AM: We just hit 87K pages a minute.
Update 10AM: Engadget Japanese is getting in on it.

Live coverage of Stevenote here.

We’ve got like 30 servers now, so it will be interesting to see if we go down (or slow down) today from the crush of Mac freaks hitting the F5 key–have at it folks! (On a side note, we never got past 4% server capacity during all of CES, and we did like 2-3x the traffic last week–great job Brian & Co.!).

Starts at 9:00AM Pacific / 12:00PM Eastern at this URL:

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
