Friday Fun: Social Media Casting Call
Everybody already knows that when Hollywood decides to make a movie about the Rise of Social Media, Phillip Seymour Hoffman is a shoe-in to play Robert Scoble.
But what about some of the other “stars” of Social Media?
If I were in charge of the casting, I’d pay top dollar to lock down Jason Schwartzman to play Digg’s Kevin Rose.
Technorati’s David Sifry? How about Will Ferrell?
Starting to seem like a pretty decent flick, eh? Who else would you cast?
UPDATE: Clean up Donal Logue to play Michael Arrington?
And if we base it just on looks alone, can you deny a slight resemblance between Jason Calacanis and Lance Bass?

I'm thinking a little goatee on Zach Braff and we might have a "Todd Defren" in the movie.

Hey, what about Joey Fatone for none other than Todd Defren? (At least, that's what MyHeritage's face recognition says.)
Enjoy your vacation!

Phil - Man, you are totally right, and damn him, he did a better job at it, too. Kudos to Josh and thanks also, to you, for keeping me honest and for diggin' up Josh's old post.
