Wanted: Deusex-Machina.com News Editor ... apply within - by Digital Nightfall

It looks like the Deus Ex 3 press embargo may be over, so it's possible that we'll be seeing news about this game on a semi regular basis now. I don't think it's too soon to look for a news editor for our Deus Ex site (a webdesigner to give it an overhaul would be a nice bonus) ... and I sure don't have the time right now to do it myself.
Is anyone interested? I'd like someone who is very opinionated, and has no problem expressing those opinions. Anyone can just say "Hey, there's a new article here, go read it." I'd like someone who can dissect that article and comment on everything can find. Naturally, existing staff members will be considered at an advantage over new people, but I wanted to give non-staffers a chance in case there's someone out there who I haven't met yet who is right for the job.

I'm mildly interested, but the shear amount of time that school continually asks of me always makes me hesitant towards devoting precious time towards extra-curricular activities.

So what you're saying is... you don't want the job.

My BioShock site didn't go too well at the time but I can give another shot at that stuff for DX3. :) PM me if you're ok with it!

Vraptor has the job, but I think a second for when the going gets rough isn't a bad idea. Raph, where is your bioshock site?

It was "Genetic Nemesis", but I had stopped maintaining it due to... external factors and after a year without updates I just pulled the plug and took it out. It's not online anymore.
[edit] Here's the archive

Actually now I remember, I closed it because the server was cracked and someone used it to send shitloads of spam. I planned to reopen it when
BioShock release would be near but never did.

Raph, if you're interested, we will still need someone's help with running the site's archives, such as screenshots and artwork collections, and more immediately getting all of the new mp3s that were just released onto the music page. VR will be in charge of news only.

Sure! :)

I'm sure I meet at least some of the *cough "opinionated", "web designer" cough * criteria :p
If you need any help...
