A catch phrase will go here soon.

New DIGG: Three ads above the fold!

6/26/2006

I guess the 3.0 in DIGG 3.0 means three ads above the fold! We got our butts kicked by DIGG users for having two ads above the fold–I wonder if they’ll slam Kevin Rose for putting *three* ads above the fold–OUCH!!!

Note: The TOS (top of service) has only one advertisement, a leaderboard. Smart move… go light on top level ads, make it back on the second level. We’re doing something similar (this is the Google School of Design btw).

Update: They are also doing graphical ads… not just text for those folks who said they don’t do graphical ads. See first shot below.

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
