Love Transit? Write About It For Free!
It's that time of the year -- the call for new transit writers!
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.
We're looking to expand our coverage of other regional systems, so if you happen to live in an area served by mass transit and want to become our primary correspondent for the area, that would be great, too.
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.
