A catch phrase will go here soon.

Geni is worth its $100M valuation

4/7/2007

A lot was made of Geni’s $100M valuation.

I’ve used it for 24 hours and I can say only one thing: the VCs who invested at that level GOT A HUGE DEAL (regardless of what Fred Wilson says about valuations).

Geni doesn’t have page views because it is sooooooooo slick and easy to use with Flash, but it is a service people WILL PAY FOR and advertisers will GO NUTS FOR.

(Note: I have no investment in Geni and do not know the team over there)

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
