The above link is fairly spoilery. Avoid it if you're a phobe. See Cindy "Angel 2: No Time for Losers" Apr 27, 2003 7:48:02 pm EDT for a description of how spoilery it is (the description doesn't spoil).

Heads up to the DC area Buffistas--my company is creating a new job in my department for a Web editor/newsletter editor/marketing assistant. They're hoping to get someone to start in early June. Things they're looking for include strong writing skills, knowledge of Word and Excel, familiarity with the Web (not a problem with this crew), and some familiarity with HTML.
The company itself is a small publishing company/book distributor that publishes a lot of statistical references and distributes publications from U.S. gov't along with publications from the UN and its ilk. Its located in Lanham, MD, not far from the New Carrolton metro stop (I think you can get a bus from there to here, but I don't know the details).
Plus, as you can tell, accessing the Phoenix board from work is not a problem.
If anyone wants any more info, you can email me at my profile addy or at aweber AT bernan DOT com.
My last ever ScoopMe column is up. Just to make me feel good, go forth and read. It's an interview with the author of Slayer Slang, the book erinaceous edited.
Last time you'll have to placate me, I swear
Beth, the link requires a password to log in as you. Buffista and foamy don't work. Is there another way to view the photos?

DC Buffistas! Jack is having a finale party at his place in Crystal City. E me if you want details, profile addy is good)
Hey LAistas! Anyone up for a party on May 20th to celebrate/mourn the end of Buffy? I'd still love to host a hootenanny. If you're interested, drop me an email at my profile address.
I'm posting here so this doesn't get lost in Natter.
Do you know of anyone using a wiki* for a fandom-related project? Or have you used wikis in other projects and have either joys or nightmares to share?
I have this nagging idea that it'd be a fantastic technology for a general resource/history/encyclopedia of internet fan culture, and I really don't want to dive into a huge and consuming project if someone's already doing it better....
Profile addy is good.
* wiki is a collaborative writing/editing software that can be used for anything from FAQs to encyclopedias. Anyone can add, anyone can edit. It's cool stuff.
I posted this earlier, then deleted the link. If anyone wants/knows of someone who wants an apartment in the Baltimore area, please contact me at my profile addy.
Rent will be somewhere around $500, utilities most likely included. The only drawback is that you have to go to a laundromat to do laundry. Parking is on-street, but plentiful. It's a non-smoking apartment, and the landlady only wants to rent to a single occupant.
