Why search in one dictionary when you can search a bunch at once? OneLook. Jay Rosen at PressThink introduces NewAssignment.net to us: "The site uses open source methods to develop good assignments and help bring them to completion; it employs professional journalists to carry the project home and set high standards so the work holds up. There are accountability and reputation systems built in that should make the system reliable. The betting is that (some) people will donate to works they can see are going to be great because the open source methods allow for that glimpse ahead." Via Sree: Several different pay tables for media/journalism jobs - from CareerJournal.com from WSJ.com And from Lifehacker, "The New York Times is running an article (along with this disturbing illustration) weighing the pros and cons of switching to a Mac from the perspective of a Windows user." The O. Henry index of literary magazines. And from Holt Uncensored, Ten Mistakes Writers Don't See (But Can Easily Fix When They Do). |
