A catch phrase will go here soon.

At iMedia Summit in Ft. Meyers…

No comments

Made it to Ft. Meyers tonight after a long travel day. Still finishing off my keynote for Tuesday. right now the title is Good vs. Evil 2.0, and in the presentation I’m looking at the cycle of new technologies and marketings. Typically the cycle involves user adoption, good and bad marketers experimenting, users revolting to those experiences, the setting of standards, and either the implosion or explosion of the medium. For example, email imploded as a marketing medium due to spam, but web-based advertising has exploded despite popups/adware.

Other examples I’m thinking of are astroturfing and wikipedia and of course blogs and payperpost.

Any other ideas of news mediums that were effected by over-aggressive marketing!?

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.
