You may know Etsy as the online craft marketplace, but we’re also a media company with an online magazine and video series that get millions of monthly views. We see ourselves as anthropologists of commerce: curious about people and what they make, exchange and consume. By looking at the “stuff” that matters to our lives, we hope to understand more about what moves us as human beings.

Nowadays, there’s a clamoring to know the story behind what we buy — who made it, how, what route did it travel to our door? Our mission is to reveal these global stories, to introduce our audience to makers, collectors and the history of their goods. Etsy aims to restore community and culture to our commerce, and storytelling is one way we pursue this vision.

As we develop our global reporting team, we are seeking new writers for our blog who can scout and pitch short features (500-800 words) or take assignments. This is a paid position with the expectation of monthly or bi-monthly articles. At present, we are looking for writers based in the U.K., JAPAN and MEXICO, but writers in other countries are welcome to get in touch as we will continue to develop our global team throughout 2011.

Most posts will involve original reporting, but some may be developed off the news and online sources. You might introduce us to an street artist who works with scrap materials, or a teenager who steals copper from gravestones for reselling. Write a book review about beekeeping collectives. Find out who trawls the Goodwill auction sites for undiscovered treasures and tracks their provenance. Tell us about the iPhone factory worker whose photo reminded everyone that industrial products are often handmade. You can focus on objects and what they reveal about people… or tell the stories of the people behind objects… or illuminate how objects connect people.

We are looking for writers, photographers and videographers with a love of food and a sense of adventure. If you have a great idea, a passion for exploring off-the-beaten path neighborhoods or just really have a hankering to review that restaurant on your block, shoot us an email. We’re also looking for reporters to attend and write up foodie events throughout the city.

CRD Capital is seeking an Undergraduate contributors to support its HedgeTracker.com financial news portal.

Junior Journalists will develop and write relevant financial news stories using SEC documents, press releases, investor databases and other media sources.

Applicants should be able to work 8-12 hours per week

The L Magazine is looking for young, aspiring journalists who are news savvy, hungry to pitch, and know what’s worth writing about.

We’ve just launched a new site based on our popular “Listicles” items that have been featured on the L Mag's site. Listicles.com presents the daily news cycle in the format of lists-- we approach the news from a clear angle to help our readers understand what’s going on. Plus, we link readers to more serious sources if they want to continue to explore an issue beyond what's on the site or in a newspaper. But most importantly, the lists are written in a fun, funny, and usually cynical voice.

Payment is bonus-based as we just launched the site in the past two weeks. This is a great opportunity to start an editorial relationship with The L Magazine and this brand new news site.

SportsGrid is looking for interns to add to our ever-expanding army of media-obsessed sports bloggers. If you think you have what it takes (meaning you can write timely, interesting sports blog posts that critique the current state of sports and sports media), apply within.

We’re looking for two spring semester editorial interns to have a prominent role on SportsGrid over the next few months - meaning you'd get plenty of bylines.

Applicants should be great writers, have an obsessive knowledge of the sports media landscape, blogosphere and Twitter, watch ESPN obsessively, and be familiar with our writing style.

Here are some additional things that won’t hurt your cause:

- Prior sports-blogging experience.

- Familiarity with Twitter.

- Prior experience with photo and video editing software (not a must).

Interns must be available to work full-time at our SoHo offices from January-May. Exact dates are flexible.

New York Pudding is an online Lifestyle and Entertainment magazine. We focus on Nightlife, Dining, Travel, Events, Entertainment, Fashion, Fitness and Technology.

We are looking for Contributors to write and submit two articles a week. Each of the articles should focus on one or two of our specific topic areas listed above. Currently, this position is UNPAID.

For better of worse Scallywag and Vagabond is a very much lauded media company with a worldwide audience. Many of our writers write for reputable media outlets including Vanity Fair, True Slant, Huffington Post, NY Mag, Rolling Stone. Conversely many of our articles have been featured by many of these same journals.

Scallywag and Vagabond is always on the look out for exceptional writers, who have demonstrated uncanny ability to digest a scene and promulgate provocation, wit, and the occasional faux pas.

Please be warned we are very discerning when it comes to bringing on writers and primarily look for a certain "Je ne sais quoi" that will separate you from most candidates.

If you come to write for us, expect to turn up to charity functions on our behalf, art parties, salons, the Bryant Park fashion collections, the most happening and exclusive parties, affairs in NYC, and the occasional jaunt to the French consulate or punk rock venue. You should also within time expect to interview celebrated members of society, famous and accomplished.

You should also be aware that we do not offer our new writers any pay. Please when applying also offer samples of published written work, your interests, passions, favorite sites, and what you believe the role of an artist/writer is. I will not answer your email if you don't take the time to do this much.

Unlike most journals, I am open to dissenting points of view, and if we like you, will provide you an ongoing forum. We are a thinking person's tabloid/cultural journal.

I look forward from hearing from you.

Christopher Koulouris,

Editor in Chief,

Scallywag and Vagabond
