Thought I'd point this out as the UF has quite a few of Linux bloggers.

Nine Lives Media Inc. seeks contributing bloggers (specializing in open source or IT consulting topics). We crave lively, engaging writers who can contribute to our market-leading media platforms:

* Works With U, www.workswithu.com, the independent guide to Ubuntu Linux
* The VAR Guy, www.theVARguy.com, what’s next in the IT channel
* MSPmentor, www.MSPmentor.net, the ultimate guide to managed services

Bloggers should be reliable, creative and able to submit one to two blog entries per week with minimal editing. One-month trial to see if you’re serious about delivering great content that attracts reader interest. Here’s what we’re seeking:

* Beat 1 - Ubuntu Linux: If you can write about Ubuntu’s use on business servers, desktops and/or mobile systems, we want to hear from you. If you focus on Ubuntu server applications within business — that’s a huge plus. Perfect opportunity for recent college graduates who run Ubuntu and/or IT managers who want freelance blogging opportunity.
* Beat 2 - Technology Entrepreneurs: Must be able to write about best practices for marketing, sales and business leadership. Successful entrepreneurs who run IT consulting firms, VARs or managed service providers (MSPs) strongly preferred.
* Beat 3 - Marketing and PR Pro: Must be able to tell readers how they can build buzz around their small and midsize businesses.
* Beat 4 - Managed Services and Software as a Service: If you understand SaaS, cloud computing and remote management tools, perhaps you’re ready to blog.
* Beat 5 - Open Source: You’ll need to write about the business benefits — and challenges — related to running open source software from Red Hat, Novell, SugarCRM, MySQL, and other FOSS companies.

Interested bloggers should contact Nine Lives Media Inc. Editorial Director Joe Panettieri (joe [at] ninelivesmediainc.com). Please include a few sentences describing your blogging expertise, real-world experience and writing skills. Brag about yourself. A lot.

Hey, neat. I love writing, and I love Linux. Might be right up my alley.
