    It's a blog job, and it pays for shit...but it pays.

    I had a friend send this to me and I had to explain to him that most freelancers are paid 4-7 times more than this...and not expected to write 30 times a month.

    Though technically not only does it look simple, it appears there's no editor...probably take 5-10 minutes out to write about a game you just watched (a bit of), and then post it yourself. I suppose I could find 5-10 a day....

    Moving to freelance. That's peanuts but it's $11 more peanuts per story than a lot of ads we get (and delete).
