Looking for a guest blogger for a week. The site is The Sly Oyster (www.slyoyster.com) and it's primary focus is on culture, entertainment, liberal arts and shenanigans (stupid videos, photos, stuff that makes you laugh). We try to post about 10-15 newsy articles a day, aggregating the best content from around the web. The site isn't all that different than say, Gawker, Boing Boing, Neatorama, Kottke, or any number of blogs out there. Must be familiar with wordpress!

I'm looking for someone interested in this sort of news blogging and promoting that content on Facebook, Twitter, etc. (though not a requirement). It would be nice to get a minimum of five stories a day. I can't pay, but the site does attract about 1,500 pageviews a day. So, it's not like you'd be blogging into a vacuum. Hit me up if you're interested. I'm sure with a job well done there would be a some drinks at happy hour waiting for the right person. For journalism students it could make for good clips/resume building. Selfishly, I'm also looking for a partner in crime to help grow the site so I'm hoping this begins that process.

Cheers,

James
