Soliciting New Transit Geeks
As you may have noticed, posting on Live from the Third Rail has slowed down over the last couple of months. RJ3 and I have both become extremely busy with work, travel, and other projects. We'll keep bringing you the freshest transit news as often as we can, but that isn't as often as we'd like, so....
Live from the Third Rail is now looking for several additional writers to join our transit crack blogging team. What does this mean for you? Well, if you happen to have a passion for (or at least a strong interest in) mass transit and have decent writing skills, we would like to invite you to join the Smorgasblog family of bloggers and come onboard as a Third Rail writer. Blogging is, of course, unpaid, although you will be invited to future Smorgasblog drinking events (if you happen to be in the D.C. metropolitan area) and you'll gain everlasting notoriety among transit nerds everywhere.
We're open to transit bloggers from all over the world, although we've historically covered U.S. issues more heavily than world issues. And while we quite appreciate our libertarian friends, we tend to be less libertarian and more pragmatic, so please at least be of the opinion that a) public transit is good and b) its acceptable for taxes to go to paying for public transit.
You don't have to post everyday, but we'd like you to post at least once every other week. We're powered by Movable Type, which is very easy to use, so don't be afraid if you've never blogged before -- it's easy, and we'll show you how to do it.
If you're interested, please send an email with links to a couple of articles, online postings, rants, etc., plus a note about yourself and your transit interests to livefromthethirdrail@gmail.com.
