    Congratulations!!!

  • http://www.blogworldexpo.com Dave Cynkin

    Congratulations Jason and family! This is by far your most promising and beautiful start-up, and your most important role to put passion, time and thought into. You’ll come to realize, as I did, nothing you accomplish through hard work will ever compare to this fascinating creation.

    What a special holiday time this will be in the Calacanis home! :)

    As in any high level start-up, implementing expert methodologies will increase efficiency and ultimately keep the headquarters running smoothly and cleanly. I’m talking about proper diaper changing technique here! I have a secret tip for fast, quick changes, and it’s proprietary. I will not have you sign an NDA, but will share the IP with you discreetly over a beer if you’d like. :D

    Best,

    Dave Cynkin

    Congrats on your new adventure Daddy!

  • Chris

    It’s been a few years for me… (my oldest 12) but you have
    the same… “I’m happy, I’m proud, but that was harder than
    I expected” look about you that my Daddy photo around that time
    did. After my first I said, forget it, that’s it. Too
    stressful. Fast forward and I now have three. Congratulations!

  • http://www.stoweboyd.com Stowe Boyd

    All the best, Daddy, to Mom and Baby!

    nothing will ever compare to being a parent! So enjoy and savor
    every moment – it goes by way too fast!

    Also savor the last moments of being “boss” cause Ms. London
    Athena will be taking over the roost!

    Congratulations and best wishes for a happy and healthy holiday
    season!

  • Chris de Prado

    Congratulations Jason, Good luck on raising
    one of the most interesting people that
    you will ever know.

  • http://rexholdingsusa.com Voch

    Congrats. I’ve got plenty of pointers.

  • Ted

    Congrats on a successful “launch” you’re going to have some middle of the night troubleshooting and crashes but like any enterprise it will be worth it (and this one has the BEST ROI).

    Remember to come home and kick your wife out of the house so she can have an hour or so to concentrate on her needs (babies do need).

    When is Miss Calicanis going to upload her website? HTML isn’t that hard :-)

  • http://ideas.biblekin.com Eric Ryan Harrison

    Congratulations Jason! I have two little ones myself

  • Ray S.

    Savor every moment. My daughter is getting married in three
    weeks and will be moving to England. It seems like just a
    few months since I was holding her like this. Time jumps to
    warp speed when you have a growing child.

    I’m so excited for you. She looks great, you look like you

    Mazel Tov.

    May your family have health and happiness. Cherish the early days and years no matter how sleep deprived you are. Before you know it, she will be off to college and leading her own life and you will wonder where the time went. My son is in first year university and my wife and I can’t believe it has been 18 years since we used to be up all night with him when he wouldn’t sleep.

  • Rob spooner

    Grats Jason! And the lack of sleep begins. And you will enjoy every minute of it.

  • http://poetslife.blogspot.com Bruce Curley

    That’s great news. Be sure to shoe-horn in some sleep in the next few months.

  • Jesus Jimenez

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
