Apply to be the PRX Social Media Curator
The Social Media Curator will work with PRX as part of a public media collaboration to find, select, annotate, and promote citizen media and “user-generated content” from blogs, YouTube, podcasts and other sources. Selected content will be showcased on local and national public media websites.
We are looking for someone passionate but also discriminating about social media, fluent in “web 2.0” and a super user of tools like del.icio.us, RSS, Flickr, YouTube, widgets, and blogs. You should be a keen observer of electoral politics, Campaign ’08, people, issues, institutions, and platforms across the political spectrum. You are an organized and open-minded individual who is ready to have some fun with this project but with an eye on the bigger picture. The project can be managed virtually but there is a preference for a Boston area curator in order to work closely with the Cambridge-based PRX team in person.
