Got some great comments on my last posts asking what we should do with our blogs in terms of wireless users.

Seems move folks think we should just make a light version of our blogs (i.e. one column, headlins only on the top level, etc) and just let folks at them. Also, many pointed out that RSS-enabled phones are going to landing all this year, so there is no need for all these mobile companies who promise to bring your site online today.

In terms of monitization it seems that Javascript ads (i.e. DoubleClick or Google Adsense) are turned off on most people’s phones, so we’re gonna have to come up with some other model for advertising (or have no advertising for now–which seems fine, we did that with RSS till Google Adsense for RSS came online).

Anyone know of a Google Adsense for Mobile Phones?!!??

Which publisher is doing the best Mobile content right now?
Is there anyone we should partner with for distribution do you think? (seems like no one has a large base of users right now anyway).

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
