A catch phrase will go here soon.

Mahalo Vlogidol this weekend…

4/17/2008

We’re gonna have a bunch of folks coming to Mahalo VLOGidol (a parody of the american idol program… yes a joke) this weekend in the hopes of finding someone to take over for the lovely and talented Veronica Belmont who is now hosting the very cool Tekzilla (we miss you V!). Truth be told, no one can replace V, but we’re hoping we can find the next big thing and build a new webstar from the ground up. That’s what the Mahalo Daily viewers seem to be in favor of anyway. :-)

Some webcelebrity judges and I will be evaluating raw talent, and their we’re going to switch to an Apprentice-style competition where the finalists make shows.

Note: We have a male co-host already in Lon Harris (aka MERLon) so we’re only looking for a female co-host right now.

Note2: By the looks of the application grid my team just forwarded me (they got dozens of these in I’m told) it looks like there are a large number of potential show hosts in the Los Angeles area (o figure). Let’s hope that we find someone who is REALLY smart, tech-savvy, fun, adventurous, and *not* just a pretty face.

Note3: we are going to LIVE USTREAM the auditions this weekend! go to Mahalo.com on Saturday @ 11AM PST (2pm EST) to watch the interviews get underway.

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.
