A catch phrase will go here soon.

From a fellow AOLer:

Jason,

I have to be honest with you, which I know you’ll appreciate. When you first came aboard, I was pretty uncertain of you. Your demeanor and manner of speaking didn’t seem as though they’d mesh well at AOL.

But as time has gone by, and I’ve followed your blog, and your messages to the lists, and your actions, I think you’re exactly what AOL has needed for a long time. I am impressed and inspired by your vision, your energy, and your boldness; your willingness to say and do whatever you feel needs to be said or done. I may not always agree with what you say, but I’m glad you say it just the same.

You’ve got brass balls, my friend, and I am glad you’re here. Please keep it up.

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
