Good Newsery

I’m a little less cranky today.
You probably noticed some changes going on here at the Craigslist Curmudgeon. A new look (well, that will come), new domain, and (somewhat) regular posting. While this has been in the works for a while, a wonderful new opportunity kicked my ass into gear.
I’m pleased to report The Craigslist Curmudgeon has been picked up by the prestigious b5 Media blogging network. The best part is this move will motivate me to work harder to bring you items of assery and lamery from all four corners of Craigslist.
In the coming weeks expect a new design and a more frequest posting schedule. I’m even going to include ads other than writing. Thanks for all the words of encouragement and support.
Rock on,
The Craigslist Curmudgeon
Sweeeeet. I am A.) excited about more frequent and varied posting, and B.) disturbed by the fact that the curmudgeon behind the sign appears to be nekkid.
He’s not nekkid. He’s wearing socks.
Mucho congrats! Now, the question on everyone’s mind is: What does it pay?? :)
Congratulations!
Best of all, if posting regular blogs at m5 Media becomes too overwhelming, you can advertise on Craigslist for help:
“Want to gain EXPOSURE? Want to MAKE A DIFFERENCE? Write 4 my site! Fourteen postings of 200+ words each will be expected seven days a week. (Only four postings on Christmas and Thanksgiving.)
“Must have impeccable English and know conversational Sanskrit (just in case.) Expect to be on call 24 hours a day, perhaps 25 if I can figure out that space-time continuum thingy… Your family and friends should take a back seat to making my site shine.
“Though I am able to offer you no formal compensation for your efforts, you can expect to fall asleep each evening knowing that you made the blogosphere a better place. And isn’t that more important than cold, hard cash?”
Congrats, you were picked up by the new rock star category I assume. Although I could be assuming wrong. Maybe b5 picked you up another way. In any case it’ll be cool to have you on the b5 team.
