As a SMITH intern, you’ll have opportunities to write for the site, generate ideas for new projects, and participate in as much or little of the making of an online magazine as you desire. Grunt work is minimal. What we will do is give you a great opportunity to get some hands-on, practical experience at the ground level of a hot indie Web site. We will ask you to research, copyedit, and hype SMITH stories across the Net to appropriate sites. If you’re a master of social networking, or want to be, we’ll get you involved on our MySpace, Facebook, Flickr, and Twitter spaces. You’ll be working with people with years of experience at some of the top magazines in the industry from Wired to ESPN to Men’s Journal and Salon—and making friends.

Who we’re looking for
College students or recent graduates who can work 10 hours a week either virtually or in our Manhattan office for a minimum of three months. You need to be smart, creative, self-motivated, professional, and have a passion for storytelling.

Stipend
$100 a month. And we’ll probably end up buying your coffee.

How to apply:

• A 200 to 300-word Brush With Fame [or] two 100-word answers to one of our recent PopuLIST questions
