the printed blog

December 30th, 2008 at 11:30 am . Posted in internin' .

As you all know, I’ve been super annoying about keeping my internship hush hush until  was able to. Well, now I can let the cat out of the bag. Or puppy since I like puppies better. The puppy is coming out of the bag!

I’m interning for a new media startup called The Printed Blog. It will be a twice daily printed publication with all our content being pulled from the internet…from blogs. We hope for everything to be user generated. You’re photos will be published, your writing, your music, your games, etc.

It’s all about you.

You can find out more about it on the blog I made for it. We’re still getting everything going and preparing for our launch next month and my next move will be to start signing up bloggers who’d like the opportunity to be published, more recognition from a broader audience and eventually part of our ad revenue. Seriously, I’m like the blogger fairy godmother. Maybe I should put that on my business cards? Jamie Lovely: Blogger Fairy Godmother. It has a nice ring to it, no?

Anyway, It’s a very cool idea that has some serious potential if it takes off! Fingers crossed!

What I need from you guys is to go check out the blog to find out more info, follow us on twitter, join our Facebook group. Help make me look good in front of the boss man! haha

But really, this is an awesome opportunity to get involved and be part of something great and completely new!

    No offense, but I really don’t see how or why this is a good idea. Things like this already exist (so it’s not as if it’s the first of it’s kind), and the ones that do exist aren’t popular/widely read. Don’t waste too much of your time; otherwise, you’ll end up sorely disappointed.

    Congrats on your internship and here’s to hoping that you use this experience as a valuable learning tool. However, be sure that you’re able to separate the forest from the trees on this idea…

    I think “Fairy BlogMother” has a better ring to it. :)

    I’ll be sure to follow this closely – sounds fascinating, especially for a social media worker like me.
