Help Wanted

iStock_000001334185XSmall.jpg

I need some help from people who are in the flow of interesting and true rumors. They would be folks who can provide “scoops” that begin with a phrase like, “Did you hear that...?”

For example, did you hear that Angelina Jolie just adopted another child? Did you hear that Apple is working on a cell phone? Did you hear that the dean of admissions of MIT resigned? Did you hear that Joe Thornton is getting traded to the San Jose Sharks? I’m particularly interested in these areas:

Entertainment
Politics
Sports
Business
Technology

If you’re a free-lance journalist, blogger, or industry insider and want to “tell the world,” please send an email to me, and I’ll explain. If you’re a paparazzo with bleeding-edge photos that would be fabulous. Thanks!

Comments

Did you hear that Carrie Underwood won all the awards again? read about it here.

One paparazzo; several paparazzi...

My thought is there's a start-up that's come accross Guy's radar and he's testing the validity before giving the nod.

You hear the one about Al Gore running for president? Read about it here.

did you hear 34 Duke MBA students caught on cheating? that's team work training must at it "not intended effect"... talking about training next gen leaders...

stick to tech, guy, that's what you are.
don't cover hollywood gossip bs.

Yikes...talk about some negative comments!

Like you said...you'll explain later. I have a feeling some people's comments might seem silly once they realize why you posted what you did.

did you hear Microsoft said "new Web apps are "changing the world of marketing."

did you hear IBM said cliant and server computing is dead?

did you hear someone call Guy want to get into inside scoops free?

that is entertaining...

Hello Guy, I ran into an interesting article about you on Digg.

http://valleywag.com/tech/self_evangelism/how-the-top-self+branders-sell-themselves-256614.php

Did you see it?

I agree with most of the comments. It just seems sad. The world doesn't need another gossip monger.

Did you hear the one about "Mission Accomplished?"

If any of you like celebrity gossip, I made the site Fafarazzi.com which is to Celebrity Gossip as Fantasy Football is to sports. Enjoy!

Chris

I hope (think) Guy is joking. Like we really need more "gotchas" and "scooping"!!
To wit...I was going to write an article about my visit(s) to Virginia Tech last week to hand out 600 "Hokie Hope" buttons to the students -- the rub "the local newspaper implied that the Hokie story might be a little stale now" -- amazing! Give me something fresh like Brittany rehab or anything Anna Nicole! Geeesh Guy say it ain't so!

Did you hear that Toronto's free local classifieds site http://www.AdsToronto.com has challenged the veteran site Craigslist?

shameless trolling. truly shameless. obvious the mentoring and art of the start mentality is falling by the wayside in one man's quest for power (or jut technorati rankings) way to go the path of the lemming, dude yamaha

Did you hear that Guy Kawasaki still has 21k links to earn before hitting number one on technorati?

Did you hear that Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie will play John Galt and Dagny Taggert in the upcoming movie version of Atlas Shrugged?

I hope this is a joke?

I am in a chock, and that is a truth!

Wow, Guy those are some varied topics you have there. Especially the Entertainment part.

Are you trying to challenge TMZ or maybe Perez Hilton?

As a Seattle Seahawk season ticket holder, heres something I didn't want to hear..."Did you hear that Darryl Jackson got traded to your division rivals, the San Francisco 49ers?"

What a bummer.

Did you hear that Guy Kawasaki is launching a new buzz?
