(Note: I’m still on semi-vacation. Posting will resume its normal pace in September.)

I’m passing along an email I got from Jeff, one of WallStrip’s producers. If you know somebody who fits the bill please pass the info along to them…

Adam and I were hoping you could help us out with a challenging, and very important, personnel search.

We’re looking for a super-blogger/web admin/web project manager for Wallstrip. The idea would be someone who understands blogging beyond the content side, knows how to modify the CSS on the widget, do some light coding, and understands the blogosphere and web 2.0 from the user side. Most importantly, though, we’re looking for someone with that “get in there and mess with it” creativity. When we launch CBS on Joost, for example, this is the person who’ll want to dive in and spend a day working with a front end developer to make a bunch of cool widgets for Wallstrip using their HTML interface.

Needless to say, we’ve been having a lot of trouble finding the right person. We’ve had many applicants with hardcore networking or coding experience, and plenty of bloggers who are content-centered, but have been unable to find the right web 2.0 hybrid who wants to innovate like we innovate on the show.

Since you’re working in this space every day, we’re hoping you might be able to help us find someone. The job is full time in NYC and pays 52k - 65k a year (depending on experience) plus benefits. It starts ASAP (like a month ago!). It’s not necessary that we have someone with a ton of work experience. Young, enthusiastic and creative in this space is really what we’re looking for.

Please email us with any thoughts you might have, or potential candidates can email resumes directly to amanda - at - wallstrip.com with the subject line: 2.0web admin
