Wanted: blog administrator

The pay’s lousy. It will take up a lot of your free time. But it may be a good training ground, and you can put it on your resume. Yeah, think of it as an internship possibility. That’s the ticket!

M* is looking for a blog administrator who has managed a website before and is familiar with PHP scripting. We will help train you and then you will be expected to do occasional work keeping things in order.

Please e-mail me at geoff@millennialstar.org if you are interested.
