Calling All Interns

Our ever-reliable college intern over the past year, Chris Wodicka, is heading into the home-stretch to graduation so will be leaving us imminently. If you know someone looking to get a taste of the blogging world who can put a couple of words together and is a stickler for punctuality, please have him or her shoot us an email at brownstoner@brownstoner.com. Basic duties include doing the Events and Blog Wrap postings on a daily basis; more responsibility for the ambitious. Web skills and familiarity with Brooklyn are both a plus but neither is a requirement. There is a modest monthly stipend.
Biff Champion I know you are looking for a Nemesis. I’m not going to engage you. But I know one thing, time is running out on your asset bubble. If I was you that would be a big priority, not calling out a poster named “The What”.
The What
Someday this war is gonna end…
The What, you live in New Jersey. If there’s anyone with zero credibility, it’s you!
Sounds like a great gig for a former Brooklynite who’s off studying somewhere else. Or, for a kid from Ohio who’s in Brooklyn for the first time.
Arent many of the writers from the Brooklyn Paper also phoning it in from other cities? oh well..
“Basic duties include doing the Events and Blog Wrap postings….” In other words, cull stuff off of the Web. Yeah, knowing the neighborhoods will make an intern more skillful at doing the job, but I bet I could put together a daily events and blog summary on Santa Fe from Brooklyn.
“Knowledge of Brooklyn a plus, but not needed? Wouldn’t that be the main requirement for this blog?!”
I thought the same thing when I read this comment. Brownstoner I think you are losing credibility. Also this reinforces my point, most of the people on this blog have no connection in the neighborhoods you live in. Plus to make matters worse people act like they lived here all their lives. Now come to find out that “Chris” has been blogging from Notre Dame?! That’s a long way from Brooklyn. Hey Brownstoner, why don’t you walk outside of your house and find someone from the neighborhood to help you with this blog. I willing to bet some of your neighbors are “Web Savvy” or maybe they don’t look like you (yep, I said it). But I know they know more about your “Hood” than you.

Not necessarily. Chris has done it from his perch at Notre Dame all year! But it would definitely create more opportunities for an intern to make the gig more interesting.
