A catch phrase will go here soon.

WSJ: British Airways risks lives for ~$300,000 (or "My first Wikipedia page.")

9/23/2006

After reading a story in the WSJ about a British Airways flight having an engine erupt in flames after take off and deciding to fly ‘As Far as We Can’ instead of landing the plane I submitted the story to Netscape (under the sbotd tag: scumbag of the day) and checked the Wikipedia for facts on the flight.

It turns out no one ever added the page so, I give you, the first page I’ve ever created in Wikipedia (i’ve edited many):

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/British_Airways_Flight_268

I hope the Netscape Anchors do some MetaJournalism on this one…

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
