LinkedIn is really on a tear of late (disclosure: my VC firm has an investment in LinkedIn). I’m loving this new “LinkedIn Answers” program they launched right on the heals of a) Yahoo Answers taking off and b) Google Answers shuttering.

I’ve been getting all kinds of interesting questions in my email box like 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
