UPDATE: This position has been filled. Thanks to everyone who applied. We will retain your information for the future, as we may be adding another writer down the road.
-------------
We are currently looking to hire a writer/editor for our celebrity and popular culture blog Celebrity Milkshake. Applicants should obviously have a taste for celebrity life and Hollywood nonsense, or at least enough interest to be highly sarcastic while still doing some actual reporting. If you didn't already know Lindsay Lohan was going through a lesbian phase, please don't bother applying.
This position should require only a few hours each day Monday through Friday, possibly working on and off throughout the day sometimes. On average you will be expected to post 3 to 5 articles daily, depending on the amount of relevant news available and the complexity (1 brilliant article is better than 4 boring articles). You will be working under a managing editor who will provide direction and contribute stories, but your voice will be a prominent part of the site's personality.
We'd much rather work with someone who has a vested interest in the site, as we've found those who get paid per-post often leave us feeling uninspired with their quick, hollow writing. You will be paid on a revenue share basis, earning 35 percent of the site's profits. This means you won't make as much money at first, but have the potential to earn a lot more in the long run.
Qualifications & Requirements
Must be able to write with personality.
Attention to detail. You will often need to edit your own work for typos and grammatical errors.
Photo editing skills, such as re-sizing photos and cropping them as needed.
Ability to be funny without always being mean-spirited.
Basic HTML is preferred but not required.
A flair for catchy headlines.
Self-motivated and reliable, since you'll be working from home or in your mother's basement.
To apply for this position, please send an e-mail to jobs@intercraze.com with "Celebrity Blogger" for the subject and include the following:
1. Name, age, and location.
2. Why would you be good for this job?
3. Education and/or relevant experience.
4. List your three favorite celebrity or entertainment blogs.
5. What are your favorite non-celebrity blogs?
6. What is your schedule like? Are you working another part-time job or are you a college student? For the right person, we're willing to accommodate your schedule if you can't work on Wednesday mornings, for example.
Applicants who make the final cut after a phone or e-mail interview will be asked to provide two or three sample articles that would be appropriate for the site, or a past writing sample.
Today we are happy to announce the launch of our latest web property, Online Sports Report - a sports blog dedicated to anything related to the world of sports, on or off the field.

With the economic downturn (or recession or mini-depression or whatever you'd like to call it), one reason the online advertising industry has been hit so hard is that many ad agencies and brand clients have begun to tighten their belts by increasing their focus on clicks and conversions. This is a huge mistake and demonstrates an inherent misunderstanding of the true potential of internet marketing. Likewise, many networks and large publishers are doing themselves a disservice by catering to this quantified approach and in the process undermine the value of their ad inventory.
