Jason Calacanis the entrepreneur, blogging guru, co-founder of Weblogs, and “not so much a fan of SEO’s” is engaging in a new form of link bait – ego bait or “its all about me” bait.

Yes friends, I plan on coining more and more link bait terms until, of course, someone stops me from “SEO industry phrase bating”.

In one of his recent blog posts, Jason encourages people to not only link to his site, but to “write a blog post where the first paragraph is dedicated to a short bio of me” and specifically “DON’T start the post off flaming me. Start the post off by praising me”. Talk about an ego; I am not sure I am self aggrandizing enough to try and pull one of those off.

Anyhow, I will await my link from him as promised, unless the latest Jason Calacanis link scheme doesn’t work the way many think it will.
