Whether your interested in writing, video production, web design, online marketing or mobile applications this is your opportunity to get top-quality experience working with the proven Philly.com Sports team. Our internships are not about opening mail, fetching coffee or answering phones. You’ll be in the driver’s seat right along side our full-time team developing a portfolio that will make your friends jealous and that you’ll be able to leverage for that full-time job. We’re flexible with scheduling — heck, we’re already working around the clock — and will make sure that you have the equipment you need to be successful; no circa 1985 computers. Our Center City, Philadelphia  office is easy to get to and great to work in. So if you’re a sports fan and interested in spending the fall semester having fun while earning money or school credit then send me your best pitch about why you’re right for our team.  Email me y greenbaum @ philly (dot) com. More general internship info can be found here.

Well today, many of you received a personal email from me encouraging you to join Wired Journalists, a new online community. To give you a sense of how valuable I think it is, here’s what I got out of it, just today.

In a forum devoted to Tools You Can Use, I was introduced (or reintroduced) to the following great sites (in no particular order):

Vuvox – An easy to use production and instant sharing service that allows you to mix, create and blend your personal media.
Dabble DB – Dabble DB helps you build an online database on the web.
EditGrid - More than spreadsheets.
pbwiki – Create your own wiki.
Zoho – Collaborate on a variety of online projects.
Many Eyes – Create a visualization in three easy steps.
Office 2.0 Database – Database of online tools.
Kwout – A way you quote a part of a web page as an image with an image map.
Zamzar – Convert files without downloading software.
ChatMaker – Easy chat rooms. Read more here.
Pingie – RSS to SMS.

And there were still other suggestions. So to me, this is a site worthy of my time. What about you? What better option do you have then Wired Journalists?
