I'm going to end up reading this entire site:
Rudolph William Louis "Rudy" Giuliani (born May 28, 1944) is a lawyer, businessman, former Mayor of New York City, and a dick. He is, naturally, currently seeking the Republican nomination in the 2008 United States presidential election.
A Democrat and Independent in the 1970s, Giuliani was considered a socially liberal Republican in the 1980s and 1990s, at least if you don’t count attitudes toward black people. Giuliani does not like black people. His current run for president has made it clear that Giuliani has no core political ideology at all, except an insatiable thirst for power.
Because online communities don't manage themselves?
WhatEV.
The money part is a gamble. I think what I'd like to do is teach. I know what I'd like to do is teach.
Can't do that without the Master's. But maybe I'd be a lousy teacher? Maybe there will be no jobs?
The most pleasurable thing that came out of the book was being able to encourage others who were doing all this great writing (online) to send off proposals to my agent(s) and watch them get book deals.
I have a friend whose cyberpunk novel is in my agent's hands right now, and she adores it. My former agent is now blessed with Jilli.
It's still a little fuzzy in my head, but somehow I think I'd adore catching talent and encouraging it.
Or at least helping people become better at writing. Shit, I talk Tim through ideas and beta read his stuff. I'm pretty good at it.
"Managing online communities" seems to equal "Figuring out how to profit from online communities."
EXACTLY what I was thinking, Dana.
Allyson, you're already more qualified for online journalism than graduates of that master's program.

Dude, they totally need that chick whose name we don't mention. That's her gig.

At what level do you want to teach?
Allyson, just thought I'd add my voice of slight caution about the loans. I have about 80K in law school loans and while I'm not that worried about paying them back, it does mean that I probably have to work as a lawyer for many years. Which I want to do, I think, but now I'm sort of set on that path.
College level, I think. High schools smell funny. I think it's all the high schoolers.
