What do you do if you're a writer and you want to work professionally in this town?

You take this internship, probably. Get in at coal bunker level, then spring.

But the best bit of all is that the site is horribly badly copywritten. And this is an online marketing company's website. I feel like craigslisting them and offering to edit their site for them. It might be fun.

Listen to these words: Organic Page One Listings, Organic Search Engine Optimization Experience, True Brand Advocacy, Online audience development, Viral Marketing Concept Development.

or this paragraph:
-----, which excels in online audience advocacy development, has teamed with ---, a full-service environmental consultancy online social responsibility programs to companies involved in the supply chain of developing any structures that may have environmental impact. These include such firms as global banks, construction companies, real estate developers and sellers and more.

These people help corporations navigate their way through the mazes of environmental protection regulations in order to keep pumping toxic materials into the ocean, and get away with it.

It's the devil, I tell you. It's the devil.
Awfully designed, bizarrely enough. Horribly horribly basic site for the kind of services offered, but the language is beautiful. Beautiful in the magnificence of its dirt, like the east river. This is one guy, I know it, with a load of talented interns. The web design house doesn't even have a site up yet. This guy must be on crack.

But surfing this site is hilarious. One of his clients found itself, as a result of this man's consulting expertise, hot on the pages of remarkablewomanmag.com. This is where it gets really interesting. So I surf, amazingly enough, from remarkable woman magazine to Rosie O'Donnell's blog. Well this is new on me. My first thought was that this woman is apparently living in a post-breakdown epiphany right now. But I've just seen this .. she's raw. I like her.

Clearly she shares the obsession with Photo Booth that has been going on here since I discovered it on day one of opening this computer.

I am loving loving loving having this computer, by the way. It's gorgeous. I am currently living a life of a professional (ie. hack for hire) writer and it's interesting. I am also at this point in up to my arse in love with New York city. It's far deeper than I had ANY IDEA the last time I lived here. It's a very different life, and in many ways exactly the same. But mark my words, very different.
