    This was posted to SABR's listserv today, and I'm passing it along. It's a writing gig (nonpaying), but definitely not journalism (as some of the more cynical posters here will surely note from his tone.) Don't know anything about it, so can't offer a recommendation one way or another.

    Did I miss the memo? I always thought that bloggers were "poo-poo'd " the pro's. Maybe I am incorrect.

    I didn't mean any disrespect, I was just asking questions.

    Because a lot of people like working for free.

    I have no problem with these on our freelance boards, this one certainly is more credible than some other non-paying BLOG! listings we've had recently. But the checks all look the same: invisible.

    I took a quick look at the website. I would be inclined to give these people the benefit of the doubt. If you have or want your own blog, this might be a good situation.
