The good folks at Rochester Turning have passed a major milestone. They've now posted over 5,000 diaries and 20,000 comments. It's a hell of an achievement. Now, they are looking for new talent to join the team.
Hey RT community! Guess what– we’ve passed our 5000th diary! It happened sometime late last week. This means we’ve written an average of 6 articles per day over the last 2 years or so. And that’s not just writing, it’s research, interviews, site maintenance and upgrades, team building, and talent recruitment.
That’s a lot of work for a bunch of part-time hacks who apparently hate America (according to Sarah Palin and the right-wing). But we’re glad to do it if it helps make our corner of the country even a little better. But man, I’m going to drink like a pitcher of margueritas when this election is over.
Speaking of talent recruitment, we’re looking for a few good people. RT is a team of part-time, team-oriented political junkies. We’re movement progressives and all about getting a progressive point of view out into the local narrative. If that sounds interesting to you, and you’d like to contribute a guest essay or two, contact us and let’s talk. If you have writing samples that you can send us, all the better.
RT is the best local blog in the state and quite possibly the best blog in all of New York. If you've got the time and the local expertise, this is a great opportunity to get involved with a fantastic site.
Congrats, RT! A tip of the hat to ya... |
