Posted 4/08/2009 Writers Needed for
Seeking motivated writers to immediately contribute to an innovative, nonpartisan, government policy, news, and information service. This is a rare opportunity to get involved with the public launch of a new media company during its early stages. You will gain valuable experience writing, editing, and distilling material as part of a fast-paced, fun, committed editorial team of best-selling authors, government executives, university professors, and business executives.

To Apply::
About the Company:
The long-winded version: OhMyGov! wants better government -- a more creative, more efficient, smarter government! So we set out to do the unthinkable: build a news and information site about government that was both interesting and fun to read. We offer an entertaining mix of "good gov" stories about public sector innovations and advances (yep, imagine that!) and comforting "bad gov" tales of government embarrassments and outrages. In short, we cover anything that makes you say OhMyGov! We have grand ambitions to make a lasting impact on government and some well-laid plans to do it. But we're taking things one step at a time. Building a strong community of people who care about gov is the beginning. If you're reading this, chances are you'd qualify. So we invite you to read along, get our newsletter, tell a friend, and add your two cents to the conversation as an author. The way we see it, we've still got to pay big bucks to government whether we pay attention or not. Might as well keep informed, speak up, and have some fun with it!
